Davidson County Health Department has issued a swim advisory for High Rock Lake due to the Cyanobacteria blooms. Since we share the lake we deem it appropriate to issue the same advisory. Please see attachment for the advisory. 

Please circulate this information. Rowan County citizens may contact the Rowan County Environmental Health Department if they have questions at 704-216-8525 or Tad.Helmstetler@rowancountync.gov. However, if more detailed information is needed please refer to North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ),  as they are the authority on this: (919)707-5900 

Thank you
