Mayor Thomas LankeyTownship of Edison

Happy New Year, Homeowners & Residents,

I am pleased to present Edison Township’s 2021 Calendar with noteworthy dates, useful community information and essential phone numbers.

I am also proud to say Edison Township - Thanks to your participation in our recycling initiatives – keeps making progress to reduce our waste stream and become more sustainable. Thank you for your continued cooperation as we improve our successful household recycling initiatives.

In addition to curbside recycling pickups, our Public Works Department has made it easier for residents to drop off household recyclables at Minnie B. Veal in North Edison.

Once again this year Edison will host two “E-Recycling Event” this Fall and Spring at Papaianni Park TBD. Your participation since 2017 has prevented hundreds of tons of old televisions, computers, printers and fax machines from going to landfills.

Our Township again received a State grant to continue to promote recycling education, in an effort to increase our towns recycling efforts. We continue to educate our residents with our storm water management awareness programs, which help to prevent fertilizers, pesticides, oils, detergents and animal waste from contaminating water sources, such as our creeks, rivers and ultimately the Raritan Bay.

The Middlesex Greenway evolved by converting the abandoned Lehigh Valley Railroad into a 3 .5 mile linear County Park Trail from Crows Mill Road near William Street, with a 10-foot wide asphalt surface, and ends in Metuchen west of Amboy Ave and Lake Avenues . There are 12 entry points along the trails length .

2021 PUBLIC MEETINGS & EVENTS will be held on a TBD basis.

Please visit www.edisongreenways.org or call (732) 985-7071 for all updates.

The Middlesex County Greenway is a multi-use trail in New Jersey running from the town of Metuchen to Woodbridge, for a total length of 3 .5 miles (5 .6 km) . The mission of the Middlesex Greenway Coalition is to preserve a historic rail corridor as a rail-trail, and to connect it to a growing system of bike paths, and bike routes .

SOLUTIONS TO STORMWATER POLLUTION

Long appreciated for its great aesthetic, economic and recreation value, an array of human impacts now

threaten the health of the Raritan Bay

Pollution on streets, parking lots and lawns is washed by rain and snow melt into ditches, storm drains, streams,

rivers and ultimately, Raritan Bay.

The stormwater pollution is one of Raritan Bay’s greatest threats to clean water and the rivers and creeks that drain into it. Fertilizers, pesticides, motor oil, animal

waste, detergents, grass clippings, yard waste and litter are all examples of stormwater pollution.

Do not feed ducks, geese or otherforms of wildlife in public areas

Use newspaper, bags or pooperscoopers to pick up pet waste

Why does the Raritan Bay need our help?

Limit your use of fertilizers and pesticides

Perform a soil test to see ifyou need to fertilize

Use a drop spreader to applyfertilizer

Sweep up fertilizer frompavement and other hardsurfaces after applying

Do not apply fertilizers ifheavy rain is predicted

Follow the instructions on the bag label for correct application procedures

Try alternatives to pesticides, such as plants that repel insects

Properly store fertilizers and pesticides

Landscape your property using native vegetation and plants

To learn more about the proper use of fertilizer go to: www.nj.gov/dep/healthylawnshealthywater

As a resident or business of the Raritan Bay, there are everyday actions you can take to help

reduce stormwater pollution

Place litter in trash receptacles and keep itout of storm drains

Reduce, reuse and recycle Participate in community cleanups

To learn more about storm water management visit www.nj.gov/dep/stormwater/

The Stormwater system is for the collection ofstormwater only, with limited exceptions.

Grass clippings, leaves and other yard waste shouldalways be placed in containers and never swept,raked, blown, or otherwise put in street

If such materials are in the street, they should beremoved

Uncovered dumpsters and other refuse containerscan cause wastes to reach natural water bodiesduring storm events

Actions You Can Take to Protect and Help Restore the Raritan River & Bay

CLEAN UP AFTER YOUR PET

DON’T FEED WILDLIFE

DON’T LITTER

KEEP A LID ON ALL DUMPSTERS & REFUSE CONTAINERS

DON’T PUT YARD WASTE IN STREET

DON’T PUT ANY WASTES IN STREET ORSTORMSEWERS
