Over half of New York’s beaches were contaminated with poop — but almost all remained open : report

A shocking report by Environment America found 57% of 344 beaches it tested in the state in 2022 had at least one day where “fecal contamination” reached potentially unsafe levels.

Seems like southern long island is sitting pretty. All of the great lake beaches are not doing so well though.
