The Army Corps of Engineers and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection are currently evaluating several flood risk management alternatives for the Rahway River Basin, and will be sharing preliminary findings to be shared with area residents at two public information sessions to be held the evenings of May 28 and 29 in Cranford and Millburn respectively.
Included in the discussion will be preliminary economic analyses that have been completed by the Army Corps regarding flood risk management alternatives that are being reviewed as part of a long-term look at the river basin and potential steps that could be taken to alleviate flood impacts.
At each session, the public will be able to learn more about the ongoing study and the flood risk management alternatives being evaluated and will have the opportunity to discuss them with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and New Jersey DEP personnel.
