Island Beach State Park reopened Sunday after a temporary closure on Saturday due to sewer line blockages, but the underlying issues persist. The park's restrooms were closed Saturday, forcing the beach to shut down because operational public restrooms are required by state regulations. The park reopened Sunday with capacity restrictions as officials worked to address the sewer problems. The Department of Environmental Protection is working to bring in portable toilets and will provide updates on its Facebook page. The park had been closed for part of the July 4th holiday weekend.
