• Testing shows water in Tuckaseigee safe to play in, mostly clean (thesylvaherald.com) — Water testing shows the Tuckaseigee at Dillsboro’s Scotts Creek access has elevated E. coli but is still considered safe for kayaking, tubing, and wading. Readings generally rise as the river flows north past farms and towns, then fluctuate downstream. Local watershed advocates are using this data to seek grants and fix pollution sources like livestock access and failing septic systems.
