KENT COUNTY, Mich. — A Kent County beach is open again after it was closed due to high levels of bacteria.
The closure affected Wabasis Lake at Wabasis Lake County Park, according to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy’s (EGLE) beach tracker.
Test results taken from a water sample Wednesday, July 26 show the lake exceeded the state’s water quality standards of P323.1062. The lake tested at 381.459.
The Kent County Health Department says recent tests show the water is now clear.
