Ramapo River Watershed Conference 2016,
Friday, April 22 at Ramapo College
This year the Ramapo River Watershed Conference welcomes Suzy Allman, creator of the popular site MyHarriman.com and Dan Van Aps, noted Rutgers professor and water resource expert.  Come to this free event and get the latest information on the environmental cleanups and remediations underway in the watershed in New York and New Jersey.  Learn about pending development and preservation efforts.

The main conservation concern this year is the controversial proposed Pilgrim crude oil/refined fuel Pipelines which would threaten the Ramapo River, aquifer and public water supplies all along the watershed in both States.

We are pleased to once again partner with Ramapo College of New Jersey for this regional gathering. All conference events take place in the Trustee’s Pavilion at the college.

The conference begins at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, April 22, 2016, with coffee and bagels and a greeting from Ramapo College President Peter Mercer at 10 a.m. The conference ends at 4 p.m. with a reception immediately following.

Please contact GeoffWelch@gmail.com for more  information and reservations. The conference is a free event. We will post the agenda soon at: RamapoRiver.org.
