Blue-Green Algae Warning for Lake Eildon

Goulburn-Murray Water has detected high blue-green algae levels within Lake Eildon. Blue-green algae present a risk to the health of humans and animals. The algae detected may cause gastroenteritis if ingested. Characteristic signs of algae contact are skin rashes or itchiness; sore eyes, ears and nose; or if swallowed, nausea or vomiting.

The situation is being closely monitored by Goulburn-Murray Water and they recommend the following precautions:
  • People and pets should avoid contact with the water.
  • Untreated water should never be used for human consumption (e.g. drinking, cooking, showering, bathing, washing).
  • People who come into contact with the water should wash affected skin immediately in clean cold water.
  • Boiling the affected water will not make it safe to use. Blue-green algae release toxins into the water when heated.
  • Please remember that water in Lake Eildon is not suitable for human consumption without first being properly treated.

You can determine if the warning is still current by visiting the Goulburn-Murray Water website:
https://www.g-mwater.com.au/water-operations/bga or by ringing 1800 013 357.
