Treman State Park and Fillmore Glen State Park in the Finger Lakes are also closed due to heavy rainfall.<\/p>\n<p>New York has 67 state-owned swimming beaches and all are tested regularly to determine the public\u2019s risk of coming in contact with\u00a0waterborne diseases. State officials said beaches are tested at least once a week for bacterial levels of impaired water quality.<\/p>\n<p>To view the state beach closure map, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/experience.arcgis.com\/experience\/2d17b2b40fc14484a5f4b74f97f0fe6a\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/experience.arcgis.com\/experience\/2d17b2b40fc14484a5f4b74f97f0fe6a<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To view the map of harmful algal blooms in New York State, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/experience.arcgis.com\/experience\/e5dec19912454731a308bbb7af605fb3\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/experience.arcgis.com\/experience\/e5dec19912454731a308bbb7af605fb3\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harmful Algal Bloom at Long Point State Park Marina.
