A No Swim Advisory has been issued for a cove on Lake Wylie near Old Oleander Drive due to a sewer overflow that is being repaired. Residents and pets should avoid this area until further notice. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services staff are taking water quality samples to test for bacteria. The advisory will be lifted when the water is safe for recreation.
