A Huron County beach is closed due to high E. coli levels. The Bird Creek Village Park Bathing Beach exceeded acceptable levels of E. coli and is closed to the public. While testing, the health department collects three samples in three to six feet of water. A composite sample cannot exceed 300 E. coli colonies per 100 ml of water or else the beach must shut down until levels become safe. The composite result from Bird Creek was 727!
