Going to a Texas Beach this summer? The Texas Beach Watch program can help you determine if the water is safe for swimming. Within this program, the Texas General Land Office (GLO) contracts with local governments, universities, and commercial laboratories (local contractors) to collect and analyze water samples. The results of low, medium or high levels of bacteria are posted on the website: www.texasbeachwatch.com.
Currently, bacteria levels are low on the Gulf coast. If they get in the High range, a beach advisory will be recommended. If you head south from Coppell, Dallas or Ft. Worth this summer for some beach time, be sure to check the site first. Most importantly, have a great time on the beach! Happy Summer from The Select Insurance Agency!
