USACE closes swim beach at Dam Site Island until further notice

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is closing the swim beach at Dam Site Island on Beaver Lake until further notice because of higher than acceptable E. coli levels that were found during routine testing.

USACE has posted signs indicating high bacteria levels at the swim beach. Park rangers will reopen the swim beach when test results indicate bacteria levels are within an acceptable range.

To check the status of other swim beaches at Beaver Lake contact the project office at 479-636-1210 or visit www.swl.usace.army.mil/Home/Swim-Beach-Closures/.
