The boat launch at Bender Park reopened Wednesday after crews finished dredging the harbor. 

The county committed $150,000 to dredge the Bender Park harbor this spring while they plan a long-term solution to low water levels at the boat launch. Dredging began in May.

The county is also studying solutions for problems at the Bender Park beach, which has been plagued by algae, e-coli and noxious odors.
