EPA funds secured to help prevent China Lake algae blooms

MORNING SENTINEL • June 28, 2024

Plans to prevent algae blooms in China Lake are underway after the town secured thousands of dollars in federal grants this week. Local volunteers aim to raise China Lake’s water quality by reversing shoreline erosion and replanting vegetation near the lake. The more than $100,000 in funding from the federal Environmental Protection Agency will be used in the decadeslong push to stop the algae blooms.
