If you've been out on Lake Lanier recently, you may be wondering… what are those white blobs floating in the water? 🔍
Freshwater clams!
These are becoming more visible and are breaking away from docks, boat lifts, and other structures due to a combination of factors, including:
💧 Lower lake levels than usual
💧 Unseasonably warm water temperatures
💧 A recent increase in lake activity, which has caused some of them to break loose and float to the surface
At this time, we do not anticipate these to pose a risk to humans. We believe this is a naturally occurring part of the freshwater clam lifecycle and current lake conditions.

🌟 Check out LLA’s newest Clean Lake initiative - the Dock Builder's Pledge! 🌟
The Dock Builder's Pledge is part of the Lake Lanier Association's ongoing effort to reduce abandoned docks and debris by promoting responsible dock repair and removal practices.
Participating companies that sign the pledge commit to proper disposal of materials, maintaining clean worksites, partaking in our Shore Sweep cleanup, and overall help preserve a cleaner and safer lake for everyone.
The program also gives homeowners a way to identify and support contractors who share those values. 🏡

The LLA Board of Directors and staff had the opportunity to tour Buford Dam and get a behind the scenes look at the incredible work that goes into its daily operations. 🌊
Completed in 1956, Buford Dam manages the Chattahoochee River through flood control, water supply for metro Atlanta, hydroelectric power generation, and more. It also created Lake Lanier, making it possible for millions of people to enjoy the lake for recreation while serving as a critical drinking water reservoir for our region.
We're grateful for our strong partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Lake Sidney Lanier. Together, we're committed to keeping Lake Lanier clean, full, and safe for everyone who enjoys it. 💙 ... See MoreSee Less
