Good morning Jake, I think we need more information about the water source you have been mentioned. Also What type of algae you have? is the picture showed red color of algae.
I think is to get rid from this water whatever the algae toxic are not??

Ya I wonder what algae it is. It may not even be toxin.

Hey Katie! I am not referring to any algae in particular, I was just trying to state a hypothetical situation that is all.

Hey Muna,
I appreciate the quick response but as I told Dave above, I don't know what happened but my question was edited slightly from how I originally posted it and it now makes it sound like the community that I am living in is living with a potentially toxin algal bloom, which is not true. This is how I originally posted the questions:
In the event that emergency pumping performed to mitigate flood conditions has resulted in a non-toxic cyanobacterial algal bloom within the water source to which it has been allocated, what preliminary actions should be taken to prevent the algae bloom from emitting toxins?
