DOH advisory for North Fork of the St. Lucie River lifted
The Florida Department of Health in St. Lucie County annonces it will maintain a swimming advisory for Veterans Memorial Park on the North Fork of the St. Lucie River in Port St. Lucie.
Sample results found higher than normal levels of enteric bacteria.
Health officials are maintaining a swimming advisory for an area on the St. Lucie River's North Fork after higher than normal levels of enteric bacteria.
Enteric bacteria inhabit the intestinal tract of humans and animals and their presence in recreational waters is an indication of fecal pollution. The bacteria may come from storm water runoff, pets, wildlife and human sewage.
