Town Of Bow: Cyanobacteria Bloom In Inlet To Turee Pond

Press release from the Town of Bow:

During our routine VLAP (Volunteer Lake Assessment Program) sampling this past Tuesday, an algae sample taken on 7/15/25 at the northeast inlet to Turee Pond had cyanobacteria concentrations exceeding the recreational threshold, according to the review by the NH Dept of Environmental Services' Cyanobacteria HAB Prohgram Coordinator. It is best to avoid recreating in this area of the pond. Photo courtesy of nhlakes.org.
