Two years ago, Hurricane Ida made landfall in New Jersey. The storm killed 107 people, including 29 in New Jersey, and caused over $2 billion in damage. Just weeks ago, Warren County was struck by flooding and landslides. And chronic flooding in cities like Camden continue to threaten human health, quality of life and local economies.
Flooding damages homes and businesses, snarls traffic, threatens drinking water, and even endangers lives. But there are actions that we can take to prevent the worst of it.
On August 28 at 6:00 PM, the New Jersey League of Conservation Voters will be hosting a virtual webinar about New Jersey’s growing flooding crisis, and what we can do to prevent floods and protect lives in the future. As a member of the Clean Water is Good for Business coalition, NJSBC is co-sponsoring this timely webinar on a topic that is increasingly relevant to local businesses in flood prone areas.
Joining us will be Mayor Andrew Nowick from Lambertville, Warren County Commissioner James Kern, Councilman Lee Clark from Phillipsburg, Councilwoman Shaneka Boucher from Camden, and Chair of the Environmental Commission in Willingboro Patricia Lindsey-Harvey.
Join us on Monday, August 28 from 6:00-7:00 PM to learn what actions we can take to prevent future floods in New Jersey.
