Lake Advisory:
Nancy Allen, Shrewsbury Public Health Department, has recorded high
bacteria levels South of the Rt. 9 Bridge to the Islands.
People should avoid using the Lake for recreation until further notice.
Ramps at Lake Quinsigamond have been closed and a Warning to all Boaters,
Swimmers using the Lake has been issued.
The T&G reported in their April 17th issue, that because of the extra
heavy rains on Sunday and Tuesday, 3 Pumping Stations in Worcester were
bypassed. This means raw sewage bypassed the pump and went elsewhere. Two
of these bypass situations occurred with raw sewage entering Lake Quinsigamond.
One was at Whitla Drive and the other one was on Lake Ave just south of
the high rise at 65 Lake Ave.
