Navesink River Municipality Commitee

[Gerry Zagorski]

The Navesink River municipality committee has been working along with NJDEP, Clean Ocean Action and all the municipalities that boarder the river. Over the past 5+ years the committee has made great strides to clean up the river. Captain Rice has been the one that re-established the committee and has been the leader of the committee ever since. This committee and efforts by the members have been instrumental in achieving the goals. Last year we saw record numbers of life between baitfish and migratory species. The quality of water has greatly improved. To the point where restricted shellfish areas will be opened which have never been opened to seasonal harvesting of shellfish. Bird life has been thriving as well.*

Brian Rice has been a huge part of this success helping to lead the charge with the clean-up efforts. Throughout his life and his long tenure on this committee Rice has been a staple as one of the biggest advocates for a quality Navesink River. Removing him as the Fair Haven representative would be a mistake.
Frankly, a slap in the face to this group and the results he has led the charge in accomplishing.

Please join me in supporting Brian at Monday night's (5/13@7pm)Fair Haven Borough Council meeting. He deserves our support.
