Audio tourBeach Park Bacteria

When listening to Beach Park Bacteria, listeners will be able to learn about the current bacteria contamination at Edmonds Marina Beach Park. The water at the beach is contaminated with bacteria from pet waste, due to the fact that part of the park is an off-leash dog park. The lack of owner’s picking up their pet’s waste has caused the waters to become contaminated to the point of the waters being labeled with “caution” since it can have negative health effects on certain groups. Pollution is a widespread problem in the world, and other parks face similar issues when it comes to individuals picking up after their pets and picking up their own trash as well.
