MAYVILLE, NY (WIVB) - The Chautauqua County Health Department has closed two area beaches due to high bacteria levels.

Point Gratiot and Wright Beaches in Dunkirk will remain close after testing for unsafe levels of bacteria that could pose health dangers. Beaches are closed on the same day testing shows unhealthy conditions.

You can check the status of Chautauqua County beaches by going to the Chautauqua County Health Department website here.

All other Chautauqua County beaches are at a satisfactory level.
