San Diego, CA–County public health has lifted the water contact closure for a south county beach shoreline.
Testing confirms water quality along the Silver Strand shoreline meets state health standards following recent Tijuana River sewage impacts, the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health and Quality said in a news release.
Recent water quality testing confirms that Tijuana River flows are no longer impacting these beaches. This area was recently closed to water contact due to sewage-contaminated flows from the Tijuana River.
The ocean shoreline from the International Border to the north end of Imperial Beach will remain closed until sampling confirms these areas are safe for water contact.
