Kettletown Park Closed for Swimming Due to Bacteria Count

Four state park beaches are closed to swimming as a result of elevated bacteria counts detected by water quality testing.

The four beaches are:

• Kettletown, Southbury
• Sherwood Island, Westport
• Silver Sands, Milford
• Indian Well, Shelton

New test samples were taken at all four locations today and results are expected tomorrow. If tests show bacteria levels have receded, the beaches can be reopened.
