IDEM BeachAlert
This portal contains information about Indiana’s coastal and inland beaches. IDEM BeachAlert provides information about beach advisories, closures, sampling schedules, E. coli testing results, beach signage, and various beach amenities. The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) works with local organizations to perform water quality monitoring and notification activities at participating beaches. Any sample result exceeding Indiana's Recreational Water Quality Standard of 235 cfu/100ml requires the local beach manager to post an alert.
