Health officials closed Westport’s Burying Hill Beach late today as they investigated the source of a foul smell in the West Parish Road area.

John Cimarosa of the Westport-Weston Health District ordered the closure after a resident on West Parish Road complained of a sewage-like smell in the area.

He said the beach was closed as a precaution in case a contaminant made its way along a stream to Long Island Sound waters. Public Works employees checked for a possible sewer line problem in the area.

Cimarosa said samples of water in the area as well as at Westport’s beaches would be sent to a state laboratory Thursday morning and that results would be known within 24 hours.

He said it was possible the smell originated from “a natural biological event” in the waters due to the excessive heat in recent days.
