Scofield Reservoir is located at the top of Price Canyon, approximately 35 miles from Price in Carbon County. DEQ’s recreational water quality monitoring checks for two health concerns: Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) and Waterborne Pathogens (E. coli). We post monitoring updates on this page as soon as we can, but our map (also found on HABs.utah.gov) will always have the most recent information.
