Major closures....

Is there some way to access the specific test locations and results? I'd like to be able to make sure that the spots from which I take clams for my own consumption aren't likely to be significantly more contaminated than the median value that NJ uses to determine harvest status for a map section.

I am sure they are available via an OPRA request.
