We’ve noticed high levels of cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green or toxic algae) in the Lower Basin of the Charles River. We recommend being careful with your pets near the Lower Basin. This harmful algae releases toxins that threaten public health and can be fatal to pets.

If you are concerned about the depth of the water in the "Pond," MassDCR is hosting a public meeting on 9/25 to present future actions at the Watertown Dam, including dredging. Join us to learn more! crwa.org/events/dcr-to-…
