In this episode we hear from Hannah Bonner and Ashley Sumner from the Division of Water Quality, to understand more about who DWQ is and the role they play with harmful algal blooms. Hannah and Ashley share all about the structured process to monitor in advance, to react if there is one reported and to help notify people to be safe afterwards. There are also some fun stories towards the end of this episode, so listen in!
