VANCOUVER LAKE: We have lifted the closure at the Vancouver Lake but have issued a WARNING for the swim beach. Test results from water samples collected this week show water quality has improved, but elevated E. coli bacteria levels were detected in one of five samples.
While the beach is no longer closed, we continue to advise against swimming or wading at the Vancouver Lake swim beach, especially for young children who are more likely to accidentally swallow water. People who have contact with the water at the swim beach should rinse off after.
BATTLE GROUND LAKE: We have lifted the warning advisory for Battle Ground Lake swim beach. Test results from water samples collected this week show improved water quality, prompting us to remove the advisory.
We will collect water samples again from all three swim beaches (Vancouver Lake, Battle Ground Lake and Klineline Pond) on Monday, June 27. Information about current advisories is available on our website:
