In time for the start of Great Lakes beach season, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Assistant Administrator for the Office of Water Benjamin Grumbles will be in Racine on Friday, May 30, to announce why Wisconsin residents and Great Lakes beachgoers can feel better about going to the beach this year. As a result of an EPA grant to Wisconsin and a new method to identify sources of contamination at Great Lakes beaches, Wisconsin beaches will be cleaner and the public can feel more confident about the safety of swimming in the Great Lakes. The new method was successfully piloted at Racine and other Great Lakes beaches and is now being made available to help protect beaches nationwide.
