Blue-green algae blooms can cause

• harmful human health effects
• death of livestock
• death or illness in domestic animals and wildlife
• bad odours
• fish kills
• closure of water storages for drinking or recreational use
• higher water treatment costs

Blue-green algal blooms are a major hazard to water supplies as well as potentially dangerous to human, animal and fish health. More information can be found on the CSIRO website.

Oil & Chem Spill Equipe can safely and quickly test and dispose of dead fish carcasses, as the consequences of not removing the fish could be severe.

Environmental studies on water pollution indicated that the bacteria that break the fish carcasses down will once again rob the water of oxygen, tragically the most likely effect of those fish breaking down would lead to the same low oxygen concentration that killed the fish in the first place.

Oil & Chem Spill Equipe can supply and install containment booms preventing downstream spread of contamination and to protect town/farm water supplies.
