NOTE FOR BEACHES WITH URBAN RUNOFF FLOWS DURING DRY WEATHER:

For beaches next to river, lagoon or storm drain outlets, water quality samples are collected 75 feet away from where runoff enters ocean or bay waters. The water quality at the ‘mixing zone’ where runoff enters the ocean is too variable to assign a status, so avoid contact with runoff and recreational waters within at least 75 feet from where runoff enters ocean or bay waters during dry weather.

Ongoing Shellfish Quarantine: There is quarantine on mussel consumption due to risk of PSP or domoic acid poisoning for mussels taken from all coastal waters in California. For more information on the shellfish quarantine call 800-553-4133.
