August 27, 2008
The laboratory results are in for August 26, 2008
All of Goose Rocks Beach and Colony Beach test site results are within acceptable levels. Both beaches and the mouths of the Little, Batsons and Smith Rivers are open for water contact.
The town of Kennebunkport participates in the Healthy Maine Beaches Program, which is a cooperative partnership to test the water quality of Maine beaches. Volunteers take tests once each week. If tests identify elevated bacteria levels, the public is notified to avoid water contact.
Colony Beach: 5
Mouth of the Little River: 5
Public Access at Broadway: 20
Public Access at 177 Kings Highway: 5
Mouth of the Batson/ Smith Rivers: 5
These are the last water quality results for the summer of 2008. The Healthy Maine Beach Water Testing Program runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
A special thank you to Raven Dufoe, Linda Hanna, Bob Osthues, and Lee McCurdy for all the time that you dedicated towards helping this be a successful program.
