By signing my name below, I do solemnly state to all elected and appointed officials of the State of New Jersey that
Burlington Island should never again be used as a site, in any and all cases, for the dumping of dredge spoils.
Burlington Island, a part of the Green Acres protected land program, is and should remain a sanctuary for the
nesting eagles along with the vast array of bird, animal and aquatic life that make the Island home. Even more
importantly, the Island contains multiple Native American Sacred Burial sites that require our honor and respect in
perpetuity. Burlington Island should never again be desecrated by the dumping of spoils but rather to be treasured
as a beautiful and integral part of American history.

I LOVE kayaking & hiking around & on Burlington Island & learning about it's HISTORY! Please don't dredge & dump - use DUCK ISLAND for that instead!
Leave the island alone it has changed so much from what it was when you used to dump before Bald eagles are very sensitive to any change and I know of at least one pair nesting theee
As long as the A.C.O.I. dump on the island no one wants to invest in our 400 acres of lovely nature.
The volunteers have worked very very hard to clean up this treasure please do not use it for a dump site again
This island is historic, valuable to the community, and furthermore it houses a KNOWN BALD EAGLE NEST. Dredging onto this island would not only be catastrophic to the locals that enjoy the wildlife, but it would also ruin any chances of our Nation’s national (and PROTECTED) raptor returning.
This land needs to be kept as a nature preserve for all to enjoy.
Keep this wonderful resource safe and accessible for future generations.
