Fecal Matters: Howarth Park and Pigeon Creek beaches near Everett, WA open for water recreation.

BEACH Program Update

Everett, WA - Howarth Park and Pigeon Creek beaches are open for water recreation. Closure signs were previously posted on July 20, 2013 immediately following a sewage spill.

The City of Everett rescinded the swimming closure and removed signs July 24, 2013, after follow-up sampling indicated low bacteria levels at the park beaches.

Visit the BEACH web site to find the latest results for these and other saltwater beaches: http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/eap/beach/
