Cyanobacteria Advisory for Seymour Pond

On Saturday July 25, a Cyanobacteria Advisory has been posted by the Seymour Pond neighborhood association at prominent landings due to visible Cyanobacteria blooms.
This is due to elevated levels of Phycocyanin which does indicate high levels of cyanobacteria.
At this time the water is unsafe for children and pets.

Until further notice:

• small children should avoid contact with the water in Seymour Pond
• keep all pets away from the water
• do not get pond water in your mouth

The Brewster Ponds Coalition and the Association for the Preservation of Cape Cod continue to monitor freshwater ponds in Brewster to provide timely notification to our residents of potentially harmful algal blooms.
