D.C. lifts recreational advisory for Potomac River

Washington, D.C., lifted a recreational advisory for the Potomac River on Monday, Mayor Muriel Bowser said.

The advisory followed a large-scale sewage spill earlier this year, Bowser wrote in a Monday post on the social platform X.

“Consistent water quality testing shows bacterial levels are now within safe ranges for recreation,” Bowser wrote in the post.

Bowser also posted a reminder about swimming in rivers in the District, according to her post.
