The local public health unit has deemed Stoco Lake at Tweed Park unsafe for swimming.
Hastings Prince Edward Public Health monitors the water quality at all local public beaches and tests water samples for the presence of E. Coli.
When E. Coli levels exceed what is considered a safe amount under the province’s rules, the beach is deemed unsafe for swimming.
Weekly reports on area beaches are posted on the health unit’s website on Fridays.
