Extractions: @import url(/stylesheets/master.css); Help Contact us Search: Direct skin contact with blue-green algae (both toxic and non-toxic) generally occurs during showering and bathing, or more commonly through water-based recreational activities such as wading, swimming, skiing and canoeing. Adverse health effects such as skin rashes, swollen lips, eye irritation and redness, earache, skin itchiness, sore throat and hayfever-like symptoms, have all been associated with exposure to waters containing high numbers of blue-green algae cells. This hazard posed by blue-green algae varies according to the amount of algae present within the water, the nature and duration of the contact and the susceptibility of the individual. Algal scums are highly concentrated accumulations of blue-green algal cells and should be avoided at all times. The table below gives an indication of the level of risk for different water-based activities. High exposure activities Activities with some exposure Activities with little or no exposure swimming, diving, sailboarding, water skiing, paddling (wading)

Extractions: Rivers power turbines for the production of almost all of our electrical energy and assimilate much of our wastes. Lakes and rivers support a wide range of recreational activities-from swimming and water-skiing to fishing and boating. Ground-water aquifers provide much of rural Manitoba with water for domestic consumption, irrigation, and industrial processes. Surface water is a vital element for a wide variety of economic uses. Almost 80% of Manitobans rely on surface supplies for their drinking water. Most of Manitoba's electrical energy is generated from surface waters and most of the province's other industrial water needs are also provided by lakes and rivers. Dugouts, ponds, and streams are used extensively by Manitoba farmers for watering livestock, irrigating crops, and for drinking water. Though much less significant today on a province-wide basis, surface water is still an essential mode of transportation of goods and raw materials for many communities along the northeast shore of Lake Winnipeg. In addition to providing an essential raw material for our economic needs, surface water across the province is used for assimilation of our domestic, municipal, and industrial wastes.

Extractions: Regional Transportation Planning Agency Boating on the Trinity River The Trinity River offers excellent opportunities for river running, ranging from expert kayak runs to novice summer tubing and rafting fun. The Trinity River is primarily Class II and Class III and is suitable for rafting and kayaking most of the year. Highway 299 runs adjacent to most of the Trinity River, so there are a number of options for tailoring a run to fit most rafting skill levels. Most boaters put in west of Junction City (usually at Pigeon Point) and are strongly advised to take out at or before Cedar Flat. Beyond Cedar Flat lies the Burnt Ranch Gorge, rated an upper class V on the white water classification scale. Warning: only expert boaters should attempt this run! Several commercial guide companies operate on the Trinity River under Forest Service Special Use Permits. These firms provide quality guided raft trips and white water instruction. A list of the commercial white water rafting companies offering trips on the Trinity River is available at the Big Bar Ranger District office or in the GTE Weaverville Phone Book yellow pages under "rafts". First time boaters should call the Big Bar Ranger District (530-623-1351) for river conditions, white water classification information and/or maps prior to river put in. Trinity Lake Trinity Lake was formed with the completion of Trinity Dam in 1961. When full Trinity Lake has 145 miles of shore line, is 16,400 acres in size, has a maximum depth of 465 feet and is about 20 miles long. Water-oriented sports at the lake include boating, water-skiing, jet skiing, houseboating, fishing and swimming. Other recreational activities at and around the lake include wildlife viewing, hiking, hunting, photography, camping, picnicking and horseback riding.

Extractions: Community Living Wheelchair University Products and Services Discussion Area ... Home by Mary Ellen Buning, PhD, OTR, ATP Its the good ole' summertime and thoughts often turn to getting away from the heat. What could be cooler than water and breezes? Does that make you think of waterskiing? WheelchairNet recently heard from Donna Mae Wilson in Morganton, North Carolina. She said, "We are looking for someone who builds, designs, manufactures adaptive skis for water skiing. We located a person who has one in South Carolina and they came and trained us last year. But he builds his own and we are looking for companies who would build one for us. We did a skiing weekend for the wheelchair-using folks here at our center and for folks in the community. Now we are trying to put together our own equipment to make these weekend available throughout the summer. Can anyone help locate a distributor of Water skis with a cage for the disabled?" Having participated in adaptive waterskiing events in the past, I knew that sit-down water ski products existed. I did some searching on the web and came up with not much. Invacare makes something called the "Wake Jammer" but... Invacare's WWW page says "call the company" and the product is not pictured. So I made some inquiries by email.

Extractions: The major human health concern for recreational use of Lake Erie waters is microbiological contamination (bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites). Human exposure occurs primarily through ingestion of polluted water, and can also occur through the entry of water into the ears, eyes, nose, broken skin, and through contact with the skin. Gastrointestinal disorders and minor skin, eye, ear, nose and throat infections have been associated with microbiological contamination. Recreational water quality impairment includes situations where partial body contact recreation standards are exceeded. To be complete, an assessment needs to evaluate all recreational water use activities where total or partial body water contact may occur. This includes primary activities such as swimming, windsurfing and water skiing, and also situations where swimming may occur in open waters during secondary contact activities, such as boating and fishing. Federal, state and provincial recreational water quality guidelines recommend

Extractions: Backpacking Bicycling Boating Camping ... Vermont State Parks Bicycling: This is a great way to enjoy Vermont during the warmer months, but the visitor will find cycling here quite different from back home and should prepare ahead. Touring and Mountain Biking are the most popular forms of biking in Vermont, but are not for the faint-of-heart or the ill-equipped. There are also recreational paths and trails for those of us who prefer peddling along a shoreline or on flatter terrain. Our famed Green Mountain National Forest is a great place for Mountain Biking, and you can do so on any of the Forest Roads such as the 14 mile Forest Road #10 which runs between Danby and Landgrove. You can obtain a detailed map of these Forest Roads from the Green Mountain National Forest Ranger District Office covering the area of interest to you. The more experienced, well-equipped, and hearty may choose to cross the Green Mountains on one of the Gap Roads . Don't attempt this your first time out! Please note that under no circumstances are you permitted to bicycle on the hiking trails within the National Forest.
