Advisories posted at two beaches on Buckeye Lake

The Ohio Department of Health has issued advisories at two beaches on Buckeye Lake.

Testing conducted by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources last week indicated high levels of algal toxins in the water at Crystal and Fairfield beaches.

ODNR Spokesman Eric Heis says that elevated recreational public advisory signs have been posted at both beaches which means that you should avoid any contact with the water.
