Where can I find information about beach closures, fish advisories, or water quality near my home?

Several EPA Web sites provide ways to search for local water quality information.

• BEACON 2.0 – Beach Advisory and Closing Online Notification
• Consumer Confidence Reports – annual drinking water quality reports
• Find Information About Your Beach
• Fish and Shellfish Advisories and Safe Eating Guidelines
• Fish Advisories Where You Live
• How’s My Waterway?
• My WATERS Mapper - Get water quality assessments and drinking water information

Contacting your state health or environmental agency or other local community resources may also be useful.
