Results are posted to the Swim Guide website at theswimguide. org – the public's best resource for knowing which streams and river recreation areas are safe to swim in, and which have failed to meet safe water quality standards for bacteria pollution. The Swim Guide lists each testing site as either passing or failing according to the EPA limit for E.coli in recreational waters of 235 cfu (or colony forming units) per 100 milliliters. The results from testing on Wednesday, July 22, showed clean levels well under the EPA standard for health at these sites. • Lake Lure Swim Beach • Moss Lake at New Camp Creek • Broad River at Coxe Rd. The sites did not meet the EPA standard limits are as follows: • Buffalo Creek at Kadesh Ch Rd • First Broad at Grover Street • Broad River Greenway • First Broad at Double Shoals • Paul & Elsie Matthews Overlook • Chimney Rock River Park Samples are collected on Wednesdays, processed using the Idexx system, incubated for 24 hours, and results are analyzed and posted on Thursday evening. Results are available on the Swim Guide website (theswimguide.org) or on the smartphone app, available for Android and Apple iPhones. E.coli bacteria makes its way into our rivers and streams from sewer/septic leaks and storm- water runoff – especially runoff from animal agricultural operations with substandard riparian buffers. E.coli can also indicate the presence of other more harmful microbes, such as Cryp- tosporidium, Giardia, Shigella, and norovirus. Heavy rains and storms often result in spikes in E.coli contamination, increasing the risk to human health. Contact with or consumption of contaminated water can cause gastrointestinal illness, skin, ear, respiratory, eye, neurologic, and wound infections. The most commonly reported symptoms are stomach cramps, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and low-grade fever. In general, waterways that are located in more remote areas or near protected public lands that lack a lot of agriculture, development or industrial pollution sources are the cleanest and will be less affected by stormwater runoff. Areas closer to development and polluting agricultur- al practices are much more heavily impacted.
