Health Dept. clears 2 beaches opening, shuts third

The state Health Deparment today cleared Warren Town Beach and the Ginny-B Campground Beach in Foster for swimming.

Water samples, the state says, show bacteria levels within acceptable limits.

But the department today recommended closing Oakland Beach in Warwick due to high bacteria counts.

The health department said it will continue to monitor the water quality regularly to assure safe bathing throughout the summer.
