Re: Rahway river 6/29/19:
As you drive through heavily populated sections of NY state, and then Pa, and pass rivers and streams, you never see garbage like that.. In all my years I have never seen anything like it. So many NJ stream are always full of junk.
Seems like all of NJ dumps their garbage in the waterways, and on the streets..
I know thats not true of course, but for someone thats never been there before, that would be the perception.
We have cities and large suburban areas with high population density here as well, but you just don't see the garbage in the water and on the roads.
Its always been that way in NJ for some reason, even when I was a kid.. The Passaic River always looked like a landfill when I was a kid in Lyndhurst...
The NJ DEC does a GREAT job maintaining a terrific freshwater fishery against monumental odds.
The citizens on NJ simply don't seem to appreciate what they have... bob
