Save Our NJ Reservoirs
We implore the New Jersey Legislature to pass a regulation to DELAY until 2016 any and all action by the Passaic Valley Water Commission to drain our beautiful New Jersey reservoirs in order to replace them with gigantic concrete monstrosities. In 2016, the Environmental Protection Agency is scheduled to review the guidelines that led to this project, which is estimated to cost New Jersey citizens over $100 MILLION.
Why is this important?
The Passaic Valley Water Commission has awarded a $3.1 Million contract to an out-of-state engineering firm to draw up blueprints to drain our beautiful NJ reservoirs & replace them with gigantic concrete monstrosities in which to store our drinking water. Nowhere else in the nation has a State Legislature endorsed such a project! The NJ State Legislature must pass a regulation to require the Passaic Valley Water Commission to DELAY any and all action on this project until 2016.
