Recent lab results from a follow-up sample collected on Lake Pearl East near the Woodside Village Ramp indicate the continued presence of algae toxins in the water column.
As a result, Lake Pearl East will continue to be closely monitored by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) staff. The FDEP will collect follow-up samples for analysis at a future date (possibly 1-3 weeks) determined by the FDEP for Lake Pearl East and will provide updates on any possible further detection of algae toxins as reported on the FDEP Algal Bloom Reporting dashboard (https://floridadep.gov/AlgalBloom).
Please continue to refrain from irrigating or recreating on the lake, including swimming, fishing, and boating until further notice.
