The creosote wood at Tak beach is no longer visible

The wood is no longer visible at Tak beach. There is one dumpster with wood pieces.  It is gratifying to know that a call to 877-warnDEP really does work. Thanks to Laura Fonde, Office of Emergency Management, Bureau of Emergency Response for alerting Dave Sorenson, Monmouth County Health Department.  He went to the site and requested that the wood be removed immediately. We also received a call from the DEP Coastal Enforcement Office, Michelle Kropilak who said DEP inspectors will be there again tomorrow to check the site.

Thanks to all the people in this community who showed that you care about our watershed.

There is no more wood visible on the beach. This new fence went up so we can't get any closer.
