Hello Province Lake Community,

See note below from Kate Hastings at NH DES.  Hoping for better news soon but wanted to make sure we spread the word.  Healthy Swimming Mapper is a great tool to keep track of our lake’s Cyanobacteria status.

Hi All,

Province Lake was resampled today, 13 July 2023. The cyanobacteria density continues to exceed the state limit of 70,000 cell/mL, so the advisory will remain active. The highest observed density today was 342,200 cells/mL of Dolichospermum. Please keep signs posted at public access points. NHDES will arrange for sampling again next week. If people ask for updates on the current cyanobacteria advisory status, please direct them to the Healthy Swimming Mapper. If you click on the advisory symbol, you can see our most recent sampling date. When advisories are lifted, the red symbol for the waterbody will no longer be on the map.
