Beaches open for swimming

By STACY LANGLEY Tribune Staff Writer

HURON COUNTY With an exceptionally warm kick-off to the summer season underway, officials from the Huron County Health Department report all local beaches are open and within safe limits for swimming.

The results issued for all 13 area beaches tested have revealed they are well below the 300 E. coli colonies per 100 ml of water.

There has only been one beach closure since testing started five weeks ago. That closure was at Port Crescent State Park Day-Use during the third week of testing.

The summer beach testing program is funding by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.

This weeks test results are:

Bird Creek County Park 2.2894

Caseville County Park 7.5863

Harbor Beach City Park 3.4028

Jenks County Park 5.6367
