Harmful Algal Bloom Workshops and Webcast

During the first week of March, the MPCA partnered with the University of Minnesota Water Resources Center, Minnesota Sea Grant, Mankato State University Water Resources Center and the NOAA Center of Excellence for Great Lakes and Human Health to provide workshops on the latest research about harmful algal blooms. Three sessions were held in different locations: Sauk Centre, Mankato and St. Paul.
