Swim area at Kettletown State Park closed due to elevated bacteria levels

Connecticut environmental officials have closed inland beaches at five start parks because of high bacteria levels in the water.  The swimming areas at Indian Well in Shelton and Kettletown in Southbury are among those closed.  The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection blamed the issue on storm water runoff from Sunday's heavy rains.  Bacteria levels were elevated at the inland beaches.  Water at the beaches is being retested today and will be reopened when tests show bacteria levels have returned to required levels.
