Lexington County, SC - 05/07/2021 (Paul Kirby) - The Midlands River Coalition has rescinded their No Contact or River Recreation Advisory that was issued on May 6, 2021. This was done after some of their samples of river water pulled from the lower Saluda and Congaree showed elevated bacteria levels that made it inadvisable for humans to come into contact with those river's waters for recreation.
A follow-up test of water from those same sample points was conducted on Friday as a part of the River Coalition’s routine. Those samples showed that bacteria levels had returned to an acceptable level. As a result of follow-up results, the Coalition’s No Contact or River Recreation Advisory issued for the Lower Saluda and Congaree Rivers on May 6 is no longer in effect.
