    Bass River Fire Tower proposal

    The NJ FFS, i.e. the state. Nope and nope. The feds do not own the land of the preserve, NJ does. Someone might be able to apply for a grant if it fits into a category, but I doubt it. https://www.usfa.fema.gov/grants/

    Check the date for those maps. If they are anything like the ones in our Jeep, they are years old. I rarely use it. The Jeeps come from Here mapping and updates cost the same as a new Garmin GPS with lifetime updates. When my youngest son was driving semi's x-country it was amazing where the...

    They are also adversely affected by the size, weather and cloud cover. But just like most everyone on this site, no direct knowledge of the systems or wildfire detection/suppression. I'll leave the decisions to those that do. But it is interesting to read the varied opinions.

    Harrisville Lake Parking Area

    The entire project was for dam restoration and repair; $1,000,000 worth. The fence is probably to help control erosion along the dams face, but will also be a good place to back the truck in, put up an umbrella tent for some shade, sit in a zero gravity chair and prop up your feet. :cool:
