Missouri State Beaches Open
Missouri Ag Connection - 06/22/2018

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources samples water quality at all designated swimming beaches in the state park system on a weekly basis during the recreational season. The department and Missouri State Parks will post signs notifying visitors that swimming is not recommended if the geometric mean of the weekly water quality sample results exceeds the equivalent of 190 E. coli colonies per 100 milliliters of water (190 mpn/100 ml). Advisories or closings may also be posted due to potential conditions at the beach.

Additional information may be found on the department's website at dnr.mo.gov/asp/beaches
