  • The New Jersey Pinelands
    AN ANNUAL REPORT BY THE PINELANDS PRESERVATION ALLIANCE WWW.PINELANDSALLIANCE.ORG 2018 The New Jersey Pinelands The Pine Barrens is a vast forested area extending across South Jersey’s coastal plain. This important region protects the world’s largest example of pitch pine barrens on Earth and the globally rare pygmy pine forests. One of the largest fresh water aquifers, the Kirkwood-Cohansey, lies underneath its forests and wetlands. The Pine Barrens is home to many rare species, some of which can now only be found here having been extirpated elsewhere. During the 1960’s construction of the world’s largest supersonic jetport and an accompanying city of 250,000 people was proposed for the Pine Barrens. This proposal galvanized citizens, scientists and activists to find a way to permanently protect the Pinelands. In 1978 Congress passed the National Parks and Recreation Act which established the Pinelands National Reserve, our country’s first. In 1979 New Jersey adopted the Pinelands Protection Act. This Act implemented the federal statute, created the Pinelands Commission, and directed the Commission to adopt a Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP) to manage development throughout the region. Many residents do not know that all new development is controlled by the nation’s most innovative regional land use plan. The CMP is designed to preserve the pristine conditions found within the core of the Pinelands while accommodating human use and some growth around the periphery. The Pinelands Commission’s staff of approximately 40 professionals is directed by 15 Commissioners who serve voluntarily. Seven Commissioners are appointed by the Governor with approval of the state Senate, seven by the counties in the Pinelands, and one by the U.S.

  • LIBERTY STATE PARK NOW ALMOST FULLY OPEN Christie Administration Hires Unemployed Workers to Aid the Parks Cleanup Effort
    STATE PARKS MAKE GREAT STRIDES TOWARDS POST-SANDY RECOVERY; LIBERTY STATE PARK NOW ALMOST FULLY OPEN Christie Administration Hires Unemployed Workers to Aid the Parks Cleanup Effort (13/P24) JERSEY CITY - The Christie Administration announced today that up to 78 unemployed state residents can be hired by the Department of Environmental Protection to help clean up and restore Sandy storm-damaged state parks through a National Emergency Grant obtained by the state Department of Labor and Workforce Development (DOL). The DEP already has brought on 33 previously unemployed residents through this program who are working at seven state parks, supplementing full-time state work crews on various projects aimed at getting all state parks ready for the upcoming summer tourism season. The DEP is working with DOL on additional hirings. "Getting all of our state parks fully cleaned up and restored for the spring and summer outdoor seasons is a priority for the Christie Administration,'' DEP Commissioner Bob Martin said. "The employees we are hiring through the Department of Labor grants are helping in this important effort at parks that were battered by Superstorm Sandy. They are helping clear debris, repair walkways, restore dunes, and remove trees that are blocking trails and many other important tasks.'' The hirings were announced today during a news conference at Liberty State Park. All of New Jersey's state parks have reopened post-Sandy, including Liberty. Most of Liberty Walk (the Hudson River Walkway), which offers unparalleled views of the Statue of Liberty and the New York skyline, has reopened. The Caven Point section of the park recently re-opened, and some 300 of the park's 343 public use acres now are accessible.

Thank you to the 112 nonprofit conservation organi- zations working to preserve New Jersey’s natural, cultur- al, recreational and agricultural lands. Together, with state agencies and local governments, a total of 1.4 mil- lion acres (29%) of New Jersey’s lands are preserved. These lands protect drinking water supplies, provide local healthy foods, encourage a healthy citizenry, and ensure a diversity of habitats for current and future generations. We are awed by the work of our state’s nonprofit conservation partners, and are happy to say that New Jer- sey Conservation Foundation has partnered with over three-fourths of the organizations featured in the “Saving Land” directory. We will continue to embrace our conser- vation assistance role—Land Trust Network, annual land conservation conference, and Franklin Parker Conserva- tion Excellence grants—to maintain the strength of our conservation community. We have about one million acres yet to preserve. Let’s get to work—together! Michele S.
