Ross Township pond, stream closed to recreation, elevated levels of E. coli<\/p>\n
After routine water quality testing, Ross Township Parks and Recreation temporarily closed the stream and pond at Evergreen Park to all recreational activities because of elevated levels of E. coli bacteria, according to a Facebook post by the department.<\/p>\n
The post said the department is still investigating the source of the elevated bacteria and will continue sampling water to monitor levels. Closure signs will be posted, the department said.<\/p>\n
The closure will continue until \u201clevels have returned to acceptable public health standards,\u201d the post said, but it did not indicate when that may be.<\/p>\n
Some strains of E. coli can cause adverse symptoms, including gastrointestinal issues, stomach cramps, vomiting and fever, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. <\/p>\n
People under five-years-old, over 65-years-old and those with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of getting sick from the bacteria.<\/p>\n
