CHEYENNE – A routine screening alerted Wyoming State Parks to a possible blue-green algae bloom in the body of water known as the Causeway, located on the west side of Granite Reservoir at Curt Gowdy State Park.

Out of an abundance of caution, park staff posted cautionary signs, and the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality sampled the water for potentially hazardous algae. DEQ is working with the Cheyenne Board of Public Utilities and Wyoming State Parks to keep the park’s waters safe for recreation. Cheyenne’s drinking water continues to be safe.
