District Health Department #10 (DHD#10) and the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) are updating the October 10, 2025 advisory that was issued advising residents to avoid skin contact with surface water at Fremont Lake in Newaygo County.
The advisory for the petroleum sheen has been narrowed to the location between Long Point Drive and the west-end of Lakeview Resort.
Petroleum is a potentially hazardous material that can present significant health impacts with prolonged exposure. DHD#10 and EGLE are requesting that residents avoid areas that may have petroleum contamination until the water contact advisory has been lifted.
