Lower Raritan Watershed Partnership

05/03/2026

Five sites, eight towns, three counties, almost 80 volunteers, TONS of trash, and the partnership and support of Mayors, DPWs, Clean Communities Coordinators, NJDEP Americorps Watershed Ambassadors, NJ Litter Pickers and SO MANY others to give the Green Brook a Spring cleaning. We capped off a great morning clean-up by checking in with our upstream eel habitat, talking up the link between cleaner streams and happier, healthier habitat!! THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!!!
