Great Lakes drownings in 2012; 262
since 2010
Indiana considerd swim bans during rip current warnings
As $70 million beach restoration projects are in progress
GREAT LAKES,
USA – The Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project (GLSRP) announces its current
drowning statistics. There were 101 drownings on the Great Lakes in 2012,
and there are at least five drowning cases yet to be confirmed (four of those occurring in Chicago). Overall there
have been 262 drownings on the Great Lakes since 2010 (87 drownings in 2011; 74
drownings in 2010).
“Great Lakes drownings
are now at a ‘pandemic-like’ state,” said Dave Benjamin, executive director of
the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project. “These drowning fatalities should prompt
communities to completely rethink beach and water safety programs.”
The last two summers the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project has
performed 17 “Water Safety Surf Rescue” classes on the beaches of Lake Michigan
and Lake Superior. It has now created a water
safety curriculum that it plans to pilot in May to school children K-12 in Portage,
Indiana and New Buffalo, Michigan. Additional
schools and communities are being considered.
According to the GLSRP, a lot more
needs to be done on the Great Lakes beaches such as:
--A regional and national surf
environment water safety public education curriculum
--Lifeguards with open water/rough
water training (a lot of beaches don't have lifeguards or do not have
lifeguards with open water training)
--Rescue Surf Boards
--Rescue Jet Skis
--Updated rip current and rip current
survival signs
--“Hands-on” Adult Supervision
signs
--Throw rings
--Call boxes
--Mobile water rescue teams and/or
dive teams
--Flag Warning System (Green,
Yellow, or Red)
--Beach ambassadors speaking with
beach goers about the hazards and dangers of the surf environment
PROPOSED INDIANA RIP CURRENT SWIM BAN
Indiana State
Senator Jim Arnold is drafting legislation that, if passed, will make it
illegal to swim in Lake Michigan when rip current warnings are issued.
Arnold was
quotes as saying, “The whole purpose of this is to save lives and protect
people who have shortcomings (with understanding how dangerous these conditions
are). This law provides a way to enforce
this. This is a public safety issue.”
The bill would exempt
those who want to surf Lake Michigan provided they wore the proper safety gear.
According to
the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project, on average, fifty percent of all Great Lakes
drownings occur in Lake Michigan and fifty percent of Lake Michigan drownings
occur on the south end of the Lake from Chicagoland to the Indiana/Michigan
border. Approximately one-third of all
Great Lakes drownings are rip current related.
“We are thankful that there is interest in water safety, but drowning is a complex problem and we need to make sure the lawmakers realize that this will not keep every swimmer out of the water nor prevent all drownings,” said Bob Pratt executive director of education of the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project.
“We are thankful that there is interest in water safety, but drowning is a complex problem and we need to make sure the lawmakers realize that this will not keep every swimmer out of the water nor prevent all drownings,” said Bob Pratt executive director of education of the Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project.
“Rip currents
are only a piece of the drowning puzzle on the Lake. Without addressing all of the factors that
lead to drowning, we are not addressing the problem; factors such as the lack
of lifeguards at most beaches, the lack of adult supervision, offshore winds,
Seiches nor those that happen due to localized winds before the National Weather
Service can issue a warning.””
“This law may
reduce a few drownings but we really need a comprehensive plan to address all
the factors and not leave enforcement and interpretation to local
jurisdictions.”
Pratt recently returned from the
International Rip Current Symposium in Sydney, Australia where he presented the work of the Great Lakes Surf Rescue
Project and the Great Lakes drowning epidemic.
In March Pratt will be presenting a Stand-Up Paddleboard safety curriculum at
the National Drowning Prevention Alliance’s 12th Annual Symposium in
Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
MAJOR BEACH RESTORATION PROJECTS
Amidst the drowning
fatalities and possible swim ban, in Northwest Indiana there are two beach restoration
projects totaling $70 million, which will bring even more people to the
lakefront.
In Gary the Northwest Indiana Regional
Development Authority (RDA) provided a $28
million grant for the Marquette Park Lakefront East Project. “It will create an economic boom nearby and
bring people to this important piece of shoreline,” said RDA Executive Director
Bill Hanna. In Whiting the focus of the $42 million
redevelopment project
is to transform the Whiting Lakefront Park into a destination point for all to
enjoy.
“With all of
this money for restoration projects designed to bring more people to the beaches,
you have to ask the question, ‘How much money or funding is allocated for water
safety drowning prevention programs,’” Benjamin said.
“These
drowning numbers do not happen on the east coast and west coast combined, so
what are they doing on the coasts that are not being done on the Great Lakes?”
