SWAMPSCOTT — The Board of Health discussed the ongoing efforts to mitigate local beach pollution and the role it should have regarding the task.

Member Gargi Cooper listed the entities that have been involved, such as the town’s Water Sewer Advisory Committee, Department of Public Works, State Rep. and Sen. Jenny Armini and Brendan Crighton, and the advocacy group Save King’s Beach.

“I feel like there’s a lot happening,” Cooper said. “I feel like there’s a lot of different entities here and there.”

The Save King’s Beach movement recently created an online petition with four core statements that it asks participants to express whether or not they agree with. It was primarily targeted at the Department of Conservation and Recreation to implement things like daily testing and more awareness for when beaches are polluted in Lynn and Nahant.

“I do think coming together with the other boards of health to see how they are managing it and what are they doing for advocacy makes sense,” Cooper said.

She suggested inviting Save King’s Beach Co-founder Andrea Amour and her peers to an upcoming meeting in order to understand what the current state of the group’s efforts are.

“The first thing would be to find out what everybody is doing,” Chair Peter Sheckman said.

Cooper said she feels it is the Board’s responsibility to be one of the leaders of addressing the local water quality issues.
