New Shellfish Closures

In its efforts to protect public health, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has reclassified the waters in portions of Northwest Creek, Northwest Harbor, Gardiner’s Bay and Napeague Harbor. This is the result of changes to the water quality in these bodies of water. See the full description of the closures in the formal document below.
