Environment New Jersey Campaign Associate

Environment New Jersey Campaign Associate
Environment New Jersey is seeking a campaign associate to help coordinate campaigns to protect New Jersey s high quality waterways that provide drinking water, recreational value and key habitats for threatened species from the impacts of overdevelopment and run-off pollution.
The most powerful tool to protect our water quality is to stop pollution before it happens. This concept antidegradation is enshrined in the Clean Water Act, and nearly 50 years after its passage, we still need to protect our waters so they are fishable and swimmable. That is why Environment New Jersey is running a campaign to advocate for stronger protections for the lower section of the Delaware River to allow for primary contact, including swimming, targeting a regional agency. New Jersey s waters are hidden gems and we need to keep them that way.
