Just days before the Fourth of July, swimming areas at three state parks are closed because of water quality.
The state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection said these swimming areas are closed:
- Day Pond State Park in Colchester
- Wadsworth Falls State Park in Middlefield
- Wharton Brook State Park in Wallingford
These are among the many swimming areas that the state tests. See all the lakes, ponds and shoreline beaches that DEEP tests here.
