Iowa's list of beaches not recommended for swimming continues to grow, with 14 testing for high E. coli or algal levels and one with a special status, according to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources' beach monitoring program. The DNR collects weekly samples at 39 state-owned swimming beaches to determine the public's risk of coming in contact with waterborne diseases. Testing starts a week prior to Memorial Day and runs through Labor Day. Tap the link in our bio for more on this story. #Iowa #IowaOutdoors #Lakes #WaterQuality
