Report Dumping in the Raritan

Stop dumping in the Raritan!  To report dumping, call the NJDEP Hotline at

877-WARN-DEP

After you report the illegal activity to the NJDEP, call your local watershed group and tell them about it as well.  They will help follow-up on the problem.   There are several wonderful organizations working in the Raritan who can help.  Following is a list of which group covers what area. You can get more information about these organizations and the other Collaborative partners on the Collaborative tab.
