Thanks to all - that was very helpful. So I guess it means don't swallow water and stay away from areas with cattle close by and then have fun! One article suggested to - if contamination is suspected - wear protective clothing. I wonder if jeans and sweater count? :-) |
In reply to Message (19675) Water Quality
By Mark - jtsmark@yahoo.com Mon 05/12/05 06:18:18 GMT I love to go swimming during the winter. I live close to San Francisco and typically go to the closeby reservoirs rather than the ocean (which is much colder). I noticed that when the official swim area get opened towards summer time, the state always performs water quality checks and frequently delays openings due to water quality concerns. I heard that water run-offs into the reservoirs during the rainy season decrease the water quality. Now when I go swimming all bundled up in winter clothes I typically do that outside of the official swim areas, which means that often cattle is peeing and pooing close by. And in rerservoirs there is little to no flowing water. Should I be concerned about health issues? Any feedback is higly appreciated!
Thanks,
Mark
