Safety Report: Elevated E. coli Levels Force Closure of Janesville's Lions Beach, Lions Beach, Janesville, Wisconsin, USA

News Report

Elevated E. coli Levels Force Closure of Janesville's Lions Beach photo #1

Janesville, 53545 Wisconsin, United States

The city of Janesville has made the difficult decision to close Lions Beach indefinitely following a recent water quality test that revealed elevated levels of E. coli bacteria. The closure aims to prioritize public safety until further testing shows lower results.

Recreation Director has established specific guidelines to assess the safety of swimming in the beach area based on colony forming unit (CFU) levels. Test results between 0 and 250 CFUs are considered safe for swimming. Results ranging from 250 to 1,000 CFUs are still permissible but require a warning to visitors. However, any test result exceeding 1,000 CFUs necessitates the closure of the affected area.

Unfortunately, the most recent water quality test at Lions Beach has reported a concerning level of more than fourteen hundred colony forming units in the swimming area. This outcome clearly exceeds the safety threshold, prompting the city authorities to take immediate action in the interest of public health and safety. In light of these results, the city of Janesville has closed Lions Beach until subsequent testing demonstrates lower E. coli levels within the acceptable range. It is essential to ensure that the beach environment is safe for swimmers, minimizing the risk of potential health issues associated with high bacteria concentrations.

The closure of Lions Beach serves as a reminder of the importance of water quality testing in ensuring public safety. The city of Janesville remains dedicated to maintaining the well-being of its residents and visitors and will take all necessary measures to rectify the situation and reopen the beach as soon as it is deemed safe to do so.
