Lake Lure Water Sample Reports

Lake Lure Water Sample Reports

The Town of Lake Lure worked with Clear Water Lab to sample the water at the Broad River (above Lake Lure), at the debris field in the lake (just beyond Morse Park), in the center of Lake Lure, and at the Lake Lure Dam. 

Clear Water Lab Notes:

  • MCL is EPA’s maximum contaminant level under primary drinking water regulations.
  • Sample received and examined within EPA’s recommended holding time.
  • Results in BOLD exceed the EPA’s Primary MCL.
  • ND - Not Detected at the corresponding reporting limit.
  • NA - Not Applicable.
  • Analytical method: IDEXX Colilert Test Kit; IDEXX Colilert Test Kit using IDEXX Quanti-Tray/2000
  • We certify that the analyses performed for this report are accurate, and that the laboratory tests were conducted by methods approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the NCDHH

The results are better than anticipated given the catastrophic hurricane on 9/27/24; however, there could still be unknown hazards and the lake is closed to everyone except licensed contractors and Town staff.

Test results will be repeated as recommended by the NC Department of Environmental Quality.  Results will be posted here and shared in Town News.
