On Wednesday, The Kitsap Public Health District lifted the cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) warning recently issued for Kitsap Lake on June 12.
The swimming beach will still remain closed due to elevated levels of E. coli bacteria. The public is advised to continue avoiding contact with the water until further notice. The health district said it will continue to monitor for cyanobacteria and E. coli and will post updates if conditions change.
