BRYAN COUNTY, OK -- The Army Corps of Engineers says they have reopened two beaches that were closed earlier this weekdue to blue-green algae.

The Burns Run East and Burns Run West swimming beaches were temporarily closed after test results showed high algae cell counts, but now theArmy Corps of Engineers says the beaches are safe for swimming.

"Test results have shown that toxin levels are below the state of Oklahoma guidelines. The beaches were temporarily closed earlier this week while the Corps of Engineers awaited toxin results," says a statement posted on the Corps website.

Earlier in the week, the Corps reported thattest results from July 17 at Burns Run East showed cell counts over 1.5 million cells per milliliter of water. At Burns Run West, a July 20 sample showed blue-green algae cells about 1.3 million cells per milliliter.
