Administrado por Swim Drink Fish Canada - Great Lakes Guide

On the southeast shores of Lake Michigan, this public beach stretches approximately one mile long, and surely gets its name from the tree-covered dunes nearby. Nestled within a residential community of approximately 200 homes, the beach is visited by both permanent residents and visitors from nearby Chicago, who make the trek to the shore on weekends and during summer months. Water quality is tested 3 times per week.

SOURCE INFORMATION

Various health departments test Indiana beaches from May to September. Some beaches are tested daily, some several times a week, and some are tested weekly. When the information is posted to Indiana's BeachGuard webpage, Lake Ontario Waterkeeper updates Swim Guide.

Indiana beaches are posted when a single sample exceeds 235 E. coli / 100 ml.

In the USA, the Environmental Protection Agency has two sets of recommendations for freshwater and marine beaches. A single sample at a freshwater beach should not exceed 235 E. coli / 100 ml of water. A single sample at a marine beach should not exceed 104 Enterococci / 100 ml of water. The geometric mean of 5 samples from a freshwater beach should not exceed 126 E. coli / 100 ml of water. The geometric mean of 5 samples from a marine beach should not exceed 35 Enterococci / 100 ml of water. States may choose to use this standard or they may substitute a standard that is "as protective as" the EPA's recommendation. The Beach Act is the nation's primary beach protection law.
