  "projectDescription": "On April 8, 2024, the New Jersey District Court accepted the entry of a settlement reached by NOAA and our co-trustees with Wyeth Holdings, LLC. This settlement compensates for natural resource injuries resulting from hazardous substance releases at/near the American Cyanamid Superfund Site in Bridgewater, New Jersey. Under this 2024 Consent Decree for settlement, Wyeth Holdings LLC will create 112 acres of forested floodplains and vernal pools, as outlined in the Trustees’ Final Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment (PDF 66 pages). This restoration project will provide needed habitat, as well as access to nature for communities that have been disproportionately affected by the pollution. Recreational trails along the restored area will include education signage. Past and future costs associated with injury assessment, restoration oversight, and project monitoring are included in this settlement, as well as long-term stewardship of the restored area.",
