The Natural Resources Defense Council released their Annual Beach Report today. Among the beaches tested was Dog Beach, down the street from my house. The results:

Dog Beach, O.B., San Diego River Outlet

San Diego, CA — San Diego County

How Often Beach Water is Tested

Once a week

Number of Water Samples Taken in 2006 / Percentage That Violated Health Standards

90 / 12%

When you consider that Tijuana is just 20 miles down the coast, 12% doesn't sound too shabby.
