Fecal Coliform Measurements - Three Rivers Park District Swimming Beaches

In order to ensure a safe swimming experience for park guests, Three Rivers Park District has adopted standards more restrictive than the State guidelines. Whenever a single E. Coli bacteria sample exceeds 126 colonies per 100 mL, action is taken to identify and eliminate the bacteria source. If counts above 126/100 persist for two or more weeks, the beach will close.
