The Fraser Health Authority is advising people to stay out of the water at Port Moody's White Pine Beach North, after finding E.coli measurements above the recommended limits. According to Fraser Health, the advisory is in place for the north beach only. We suspect the E.coli at White Pine Beach is due to geese in the area," a Fraser Health spokesperson said in an emailed statement. Fraser Health has recommended that the beach operator, Metro Vancouver, post signs at the beach to warn swimmers. Over the past week, Port Moody Police said officers responded to reports of physical assaults, assaults with bear spray, intoxication and liquor consumption and abuse of bylaw officers at White Pine Beach.
