NJCWRP is to facilitate public and private partnerships for the restoration and preservation of ecosystems in New Jersey and surrounding areas. The NJCWRP also educates the public on the importance of restoring and preserving these ecosystems for the welfare of humans and animals. A $25,000 grant made to The Nature Conservancy TNC to support the removal of the Cedar Grove Dam on the Pequest River in Belvidere NJ. The project will restore aquatic connectivity and improve water quality for the benefit of fish species such as American shad. Removal of the dam is part of a TNC initiative to restore the Pequest River to a more natural system. Many of the dams on the Pequest have outlived their usefulness and become hazardous degrading water quality disconnecting access to important spawning habitat for migratory fish and posing a danger to recreational paddlers. Maintenance and repair of aging dam is costly and in many cases removal is the cheaper and more ecologically conscious option. This project along with the nearby No Name Dam will reconnect and improve 7.8 miles on the mainstem Pequest River and 50 miles of its tributaries. 25000 25000 A $25,000 grant to the Association of New Jersey Environmental Commissions ANJEC to complete the Restoration of Water Quality in the Parvin-Tarkiln Watershed Project in Vineland NJ. The project will reduce impacts of localized flooding and improve water quality in the Parvin and Tarkiln streams tributaries to the Maurice River. The work includes using green infrastructure to manage previously untreated stormwater runoff reducing nutrient and sediment loadings thereby protecting and improving water quality. The funding will cover the cost of one of six engineered stormwater management tree pits with interpretative signage along a municipal parking lot in Vineland. These pits will divert capture and filter stormwater runoff before it enters local waterways thus improving the health of urban and suburban waterways and reducing the need for existing storm sewer systems to convey these flows. 25000 25000 A grant for $19,961 to the American Littoral Society ALS for work associated with the South Riverside Drive Living Shoreline Project at the Shark River Inlet in Neptune NJ. The project will reduce flood risk and mitigate impact of storm events improve community resiliency by protecting existing beach and marsh habitat value to people and spawning horseshoe crabs reduce erosion rates and raise beach elevation in the face of sea level rise offer ecological uplift and improved biodiversity and improve local water quality with a decrease in sedimentation. As part of the restoration continued monitoring and adaptive management have been accomplished. For this particular adaptive management portion of the project sand will be added to the berm system and stabilized with coir logs and dune and high and low marsh plants will be planted to improve berm stabilization. Interpretive signage will also be placed on-site telling the story of the project. 19961 19961 A $5000 grant to the Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority Wallkill River Watershed Management Group to complete riparian restoration work associated with the Community Conservation Program for the Paulinskill Lakes Initiative. The project will restore and enhance 10 acres of wetlands along 1st and 2nd order tributaries in the Upper Paulins Kill Watershed in Frankford Township NJ. The work includes plugging drainage ditches building shallow water habitat pools controlling and removing invasive species and planting warm season grasses while providing outdoor educational opportunities for elementary middle and high school students AmeriCorps NJ watershed Ambassadors and local volunteer organizations. At least 225 volunteers will be engaged in restoration activities by project completion. 5000 5000 A $5000 grant to the Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority Wallkill River Watershed Management Group to complete funding for the Expansion of the Floating Treatment Wetland Program for the Paulins Kill Lakes Initiative. The project will install floating treatment wetland structures for use in a pilot program at youth outdoor educational camps in the Paulins Kill Watershed. This program will combat nonpoint source pollutant loading and deter harmful algal bloom HAB development within Fairview Lake in Stillwater Township NJ and Bass Lake in Hardwick Township NJ. 75 children attending youth camps will help implement the program and be educated in these matters. 5000 5000 A $12,125 grant to the Township of Woodbridge to fund Phase 2 of the Forested Wetland Floodplain Restoration project in Woodbridge NJ along the Woodbridge River. This grant will fund Phase 2 of a Forested Wetland Floodplain Restoration project in the Watson-Crampton neighborhood in Woodbridge NJ. The project will enhance wetland function and integrity through the restoration of 3 acres of Phragmites common reed back to a native forested wetland. The project will also convey stormwater and flood waters from the adjacent developed area to the Woodbridge River. The design increases flood water storage using natural ecological features and re-establishes native wetland vegetation appropriate to the site conditions. This restored habitat will improve water quality and biodiversity for state-listed threatened wading bird species such as little blue herons and snowy egrets as well as roosting habitat for black-crowned night herons and cattle egrets. 12125 12125 A $15,000 grant to the New Jersey Conservation Foundation to fund a Chinese Pond Mussel Eradication program at the NJCFs Wickecheoke Creek Preserve in Flemington NJ. The project was to eradicate a population of the aquatic invasive species Chinese Pond Mussel discovered in former aquaculture ponds in Hunterdon County NJ. The Chinese Pond Mussels have the potential to negatively impact native freshwater mussel and fish populations alter streambed habitat impacting macroinvertebrates and disrupt the entire aquatic food web. Eliminating this mussel population the only known such infestation in North America will prevent the possible spread to other waters. 15000 15000 107086 Robert Pollock President 2 0 0 0 Daniel Montella Treasurer 4 0 0 0 Russell Furnari Vice President 2 0 0 0 James Shissias Secretary 4 0 0 0 false false false false false 0 false false false false NJ Daniel T Montella 11 Dow Ave Waldwick NJ 074631704 2016120357 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 0 0 0 188000 160500 348500 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 188000 160500 348500 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 348500 0 0 0 490 2433 2923 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 490 2433 2923 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 188490 162933 351423 X Doing Business As Names NJCWRP Part I, line 10 | Grants And Similar Amounts Paid:, Amount:| Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority Wallkill River Watershed Management Group 34 South Route 94 Lafayette NJ 07848 - # 222-272-173 000 $5,000 to complete riparian restoration work associated with the "Community Conservation Program for the PaulinsKill Lakes Initiative", $5000| New Jersey Conservation Foundation 170 Longview Road Far Hills NJ 07931.
