Lake Ronkonkoma Beach Reopens
The beach closure for Lake Ronkonkoma Beach in the Town of
Islip has been lifted, as recent water samples meet New York State standards.
According to Suffolk County
Commissioner of Health Dr. James Tomarken, bathing in bacteria-contaminated
water can result in gastrointestinal illness, as well as infections of the
eyes, ears, nose, and throat.
For the latest information on
affected beaches, call the Bathing Beach HOTLINE at 852-5822, contact the
Department's Office of Ecology at 852-5760 during normal business hours, or

Monitoring page on the Suffolk County website.
