Bakterien im Wasser

Hallo,

mal eine kurze Frage. Bei Fort Meyers und an einigen anderen Stränden sind Bakterien im Wasser, so daß man nicht baden gehen soll.

Ist das immer so um diese Jahreszeit? Wir würden nämlich schon gern ins Wasser gehen. Zur Zeit wird aber wohl davor gewarnt. Hat jemand Erfahrung damit, wie bald sich das geben wird?

Liebe Grüße!

Scheint alles wieder okay zu sein.

Bericht aus dem Islandsandpaper (http://www.islandsandpaper.com/advisories-lifted.aspx):

Boil Water Notice Cancelled

The August 12, 2011 Precautionary Boil Water Notice has been cancelled for the Fort Myers Beach area following the satisfactory completion of the bacteriological survey showing the water is safe to drink. For questions, call Beach Water at (239) 463-9914

Beach Advisory Lifted

The Lee County Health Department has lifting its advisories on Bowditch, Lynn Hall and Bonita Park beaches. Water samples taken on Monday, August 15, 2011, indicate enterococcus and coliform bacteria concentrations at these beaches have returned to safe levels for swimming.

A total of 18 beach locations were tested, and none were found to have bacteria contents over the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standard. The town of Fort Myers Beach requested the five additional public beach access waters samples that were tested this week over the standard 13.

Enterococcus and coliform bacteria normally inhabit the intestinal tract of humans and animals. The presence of an elevated concentration of these bacteria is an indicator of pollution, which may come from storm water runoff, pets, wildlife, or sewage.

The next routine beach water sampling of 13 public beaches will be taken on Monday, August 22, 2011, with results available 24 hours later.

For more information, please view the internet website at www.leechd.com select Services, Environmental Health, and then Healthy Beaches, or call the Lee County Health Department at (239) 274-2200 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
