Swimming is still not recommended at Lake Red Rock’s Whitebreast and North Overlook Beaches due to elevated bacterial counts.

 This recommendation comes from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Rock Island District. The beaches will be posted with “Swimming Not Recommended” signs until further testing can indicate lower bacteria counts. 

 Sampling at the beaches is performed weekly by the Corps through a contact with Iowa State University. 

 KNIA/KRLS will provide updates on bacterial counts at Lake Red Rock.
