County stops water quality testing in Seal Beach

For those of you who keep tabs on whether the water is too funky to surf in, looks like it might be tough to find out in Seal Beach and Sunset Beach.

The crew over at Seal Beach Daily shot me a story saying the county is going to stop water quality testing from Nov. 1 through March 31.

That’s weird, because that’s when the water is the nastiest after the rains, and really when we see how much gross germs end up in the water.

I guess Bolsa Chica south will still get tested, but sucks for the people at Seal Beach. The city manager is looking at ways to privately fund testing.
