PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - The Rhode Island Department of Health says the Lower Pond at the Kent County YMCA in Warwick is safe for swimming.
Health officials said Monday that high bacteria counts in the water had led to its closure on June 28. Further testing has found the bacteria counts to be within acceptable levels.
The department’s website shows that the only beach that remains closed for swimming is Oakland Beach in Warwick. It has been closed for about 10 days.
