Navesink River, Raritan Bay to be discussed in Atlantic Highlands

Folks concerned about the health of the Navesink River and Raritan Bay are encouraged to attend a meeting in Atlantic Highlands this week.

On Thursday May 26, from 7 to 9 PM, the Monmouth County Environmental Council will be hosting a public meeting to discuss the New York-New Jersey Harbor Estuary Program (HEP) 2017 Action Agenda.

The Action Agenda is a critical mandate of the Clean Water Act. How HEP uses its funding and research capacities to carry out shared goals for the Navesink River and Raritan Bay is the prime topic for discussion.

Anyone concerned about the future of the Navesink River and Raritan Bay is encouraged to attend and share their thoughts or concerns. The meeting will be held at the Atlantic Highlands Senior Center which is located at 3 Simon Lake Drive in Atlantic Highlands.
