We the undersigned citizens are either directly affected or concerned by the recurring flooding that exits in the Passaic River flood basin.

There are solutions to this problem, but all require state and federal action by our legislators. Various studies have already been completed by the, Army Corps of Engineers that offer solutions to the problem. We the undersigned citizens are requesting action from government agencies to move forward in providing relief to our area and help prevent future flooding. Whether it
The stories shared by neighbors about their damaged properties confirm that we cannot wait any longer for a permanent solution. I am currently compiling all of our signatures to deliver a formal packet to the regional Army Corps office. Please call your local representative today and demand they prioritize the flood mitigation studies already on their desks.
