According to an Algal Bloom Monitoring map (left) from the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services, the entirety of Lake Hartwell is under an “HAB Watch” after a harmful algal bloom was confirmed in several locations on the South Carolina side of the lake. The square shapes on the map represent areas with “HAB reported sightings.” Right, HAB can appear like bright green spilled paint or blue-green discoloration of the water.
