Saratoga Springs Marina re-opens

By Chanel Nagaishi
SARATOGA SPRINGS -- After a lengthy construction project, with unanticipated delays and setbacks, the Saratoga Springs Public Marina re-opened just in time for Labor Day Weekend. While it is unclear how much longer the facility will be open, residents expressed excitement at the prospect of one last hurrah before the season's end.

Amidst the enthusiasm, some people pointed out concerns with the water quality due to the algal bloom. The city advised checking the Utah Department of Environmental Quality website before heading out. Even if toxin levels are below what is needed for a health advisory, the agency still recommends taking the following precautions:
-Do not swim or water ski
-Do not drink the water
-Keep pets and livestock away
-Clean fish well and discard guts
-Avoid areas of scum when boating.

The Marina is open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., and attendants are available on Friday afternoons, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. The cost to launch a motor boat is $8, however, if using a kayak or inflatable raft is more your style, you are not required to pay the fee. In addition to boating, patrons can swim, fish and enjoy other park amenities.
