    Clay Pipe at Hampton

    I worked on many terra cotta sewers as a plumber in the 70s and in addition to the alignment issue is the joint material. The standard was mortar which would allow hair roots to get in and then thrive in the steady water supply, which led to stoppages and could even pop the joints. Cutting out...

    Trepidations

    I know several people who live in “ Seizuretown” and they all are happy there. The pig farm put out an awful odor when in operation, but with it now gone I’ve not heard of any similar complaints. One of the things that did bother me about those homes was the electric baseboard heating.

    Godfrey's Bridge

    I did years ago, but it has become so much shallower there over the last 50 years. I think I read where someone was killed there, maybe over the last few years after diving in and breaking his neck.

    Godfrey's Bridge

    The transcript makes it obvious that the bridge(s) need to be replaced, but it doesn’t address the other problems with the paved road leading to the bridge which many of the local residents are requesting to be fixed as well. Maybe that’s another project.

    Porsche unveils 911 Dakar, an off-road beast

    I think an old fashioned airboat, like the ones used in the Everglades, would probably be more useful and be cheaper than that beast.

    Porsche unveils 911 Dakar, an off-road beast

    I guess this wasn’t tested in pine barrens like conditions, it wouldn’t make it down many of the roads I routinely drive on.

    A Proposal By The NJDEP To Develop A Permit System For Vehicles Using The Back Roads That Crisscross Wharton State Forest Has Given Rise To A Budding

    There are already laws denying access to certain areas as well as laws regulating the use of motor vehicles on these lands and which vehicle types are permitted and which ones are not. These laws are ignored by some and apparently are very difficult to enforce, so without adequate law...

    Police investigating fatal crash in Burlington County (On 532 Near Apple Pie Hill)

    I think the speed bumps in town keep the traffic speed under control on Main Street.

    Oh Boy, It's Witchcraft!

    Wow! A ticket costs as much as $85 at the gate and another $20 or more to park!!? Will Spielberg be there?

    Drain Water From Road Puddles

    Very neat! If placed on some roads the water could be gone, but then again the pump might walk away to.

    How New Jersey Plans to Relocate Flooded ‘Ghost Forests’ Inland

    I’m not buying the claim of “Accelerating sea-level rise and storm surges from ever-stronger hurricanes” but it’s nice to see more trees saved.

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    It’s been many years since I last got a permit to drive on the beach at LBI, so things could have changed (doubtful). But if a Wharton permit system is to be based on that model, then we can expect a yearly, expensive permit with only a limited number of permits to be issued yearly.

    The Happening, Batona Field

    Those tents are setup way beyond the boundaries of the campground. I wonder if a ranger has driven by and busted them yet. I’ve seen campers busted in the past who were camping a whole lot closer to the boundaries.

    One of the pics mentions “Carranza State Park”, is that accurate? Haven’t heard of that before.

    Packs of them

    The LEOs should carry and immediately put a vehicle boot on any ATV caught riding illegally. The ATV can later be picked up by the rider after paying a large fine and all fees associated with retaining the ATV.

    ATVs continue wild illegal joyrides through the NJ Pine Barrens

    It’s a whole lot easier to control an area like Island Beach Park, with its one way in and out and authorities that only have to cover a very small area vs. the million acres within the Pines.
