Action Agenda

Over the summer of 2009, working groups will develop strategies related to each of the topics on the action agenda. Members of these groups identified critical data needs, outstanding issues and solutions for restoring the Raritan.

The reports of the individual working groups are listed here:

• Hazardous sites and sediment cleanup
• Water quality, stormwater and infrastructure
• Habitat preservation and resource stewardship
• Greenways, recreation and public access
• Balancing redevelopment and restoration

In keeping with the national agenda of service, Rutgers stands ready to commit to provide the skills and energy required to gather data, conduct research and carry out programs in support of the long-term viability of the Raritan River. It is our hope that this shared vision, commitment and agenda for the future will become a central tenet of a Rutgers education.
