Passaic River cleanup update
Progress is being made in the Passaic River cleanup. At the very least, we are moving from the litigation stage to the actual cleanup stage. Press release describing the most recent rulings available here:

That's the best part. If anyone starts taking fish, to eat anyway, they won't live long enough to damage the population, lol.

Re: Passaic River cleanup update
Hopefully all us guys who fish the river regularly live long enough to see even more progress than we've seen in the passed 10 years or so. I remember my grandfather (who grew up in Wallington on the Passaic) telling me stories how when he was young, they would spend the day on "Atlas Beach", a small man maid "beach" along the Passaic. Also said him and his buddies would "swim from Wallington across the river to Passaic". No wonder the guy lived til almost 100 lol.
