The Issue

We the undersigned Petition EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan and Governor Phil Murphy to NOT use the PSE&G property located at South Frank E. Rodgers Blvd in Harrison, NJ as a Sediment (Sludge) Processing Facility from the dredging of Passaic River contaminated toxic and cancer-causing soil. The sludge contains by-products of producing Agent Orange at the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site in Newark NJ.  Over Twenty Years Ago, Mayor Raymond J. McDonough and Peter Higgins set forth a plan to redevelop contaminated industrial properties into residential properties.  Their vision has almost been fulfilled.  Contaminated soils should not be dumped in what is now a residential neighborhood in Harrison NJ.
