proposed storm barrier

Learn More: Barrier plans threaten the Hudson River

Make your voice heard – the river can’t speak for itself.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is considering six different plans to protect against coastal storm damage as part of its New York – New Jersey Harbor and Tributaries (NYNJHAT) Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study. Several of these plans call for construction of massive, in-water barriers that would critically harm the Hudson River Estuary. Your voice is urgently needed now to prevent a short-sighted decision and to help protect the river and its life.” – Riverkeeper
