<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> ConservanCy <strong>of</strong> new Jersey 2011 Annual Report


Lodestar Park, Fredon Township<br />

Page 2<br />

As <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> celebrated its 30th<br />

anniversary throughout the year in 2011, it gave<br />

us a wonderful opportunity to reflect upon our many<br />

accomplishments and develop lists <strong>of</strong> numbers to<br />

highlight our achievements. Now, I will be the first to<br />

admit that I love numbers and that working with <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> fuels this fire with virtually endless<br />

lists (acres we preserved, plans we have completed,<br />

dollars we have spent, dollars we have saved, etc., etc.)<br />

But the numbers only tell a small part <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong>’s anniversary story.<br />

<strong>The</strong> real story is the wonderful people that we have encountered and the exciting<br />

new ideas they have brought to our ef<strong>for</strong>ts which, when coupled with their<br />

enthusiasm, has motivated us to make great new conservation projects happen in<br />

entirely new ways. <strong>The</strong>se ordinary insights have allowed us to do extraordinary<br />

things.<br />

Some <strong>of</strong> these remarkable and unheralded people who have helped us make<br />

a difference include people like Karl Wilder, who as <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s first<br />

volunteer, suggested that we begin working with towns because they needed<br />

our help. Mildred Lillis convinced us to begin planning to develop a long-term<br />

funding stream to care <strong>for</strong> the lands we own and whose bequest later helped us<br />

start our <strong>Land</strong> Management Fund.<br />

Bob Ivry who used his pr<strong>of</strong>essional journalism experience to give us the original<br />

design <strong>for</strong> our first newsletter. Peter Laue who was one <strong>of</strong> our early volunteers<br />

at our new <strong>of</strong>fice, but continues to help us complete complex repairs, even after<br />

he celebrated his 85th birthday. Leslie Sauer who, along with Emile DeVito,<br />

taught us the basic ecological principles <strong>of</strong> land restoration that gave us the<br />

confidence to take on the Rezamir project and complete it to a level we never<br />

dreamed <strong>of</strong>.<br />

People like Brian Powell, Marty Epstein, Bill Pettit and Tom Scudese who<br />

have brought their considerable expertise to bear in helping us develop our new<br />

Pedal <strong>for</strong> Preservation bicycling event that will kick <strong>of</strong>f our next generation <strong>of</strong><br />

fundraising ef<strong>for</strong>ts <strong>for</strong> our second 30 years.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se are just a very few <strong>of</strong> the many people whose seemingly small<br />

contributions have done so much to help <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> further the cause<br />

<strong>of</strong> conservation. <strong>The</strong>re are, <strong>of</strong> course, hundreds <strong>of</strong> other people whose stories<br />

we don’t tell, but whose help we truly appreciate. For all <strong>of</strong> the people who<br />

have contributed to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s ef<strong>for</strong>ts in ways both large and small, we<br />

dedicate this 30th anniversary annual report to you.<br />

LAND PRESERVATION<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey is working to build<br />

healthy, livable, sustainable communities through our land<br />

preservation work. <strong>The</strong> impact <strong>of</strong> our ef<strong>for</strong>ts in 2011 can be seen in<br />

the diversity <strong>of</strong> projects we completed that are helping to trans<strong>for</strong>m<br />

our state.<br />

Safeguarding land that buffers our rivers and streams to help filter<br />

our water and provide safe, plentiful, and clean drinking water<br />

South Branch Preserve<br />

Mount Olive Township, Morris County<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey tripled the size the South<br />

Branch Preserve in Mt. Olive Township in 2011. Working with the<br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey Water Supply Authority, Mount Olive Township, Morris<br />

County Municipal Utilities Authority, Trout Unlimited, the Raritan<br />

Headwaters Association and the State <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey, the South<br />

Branch Preserve is now 372 acres <strong>of</strong> land in the headwaters <strong>of</strong> the<br />

South Branch <strong>of</strong> the Raritan River.<br />

<strong>The</strong> South Branch Preserve is a great example <strong>of</strong> ef<strong>for</strong>ts to bring<br />

together public and private organizations with different interests and<br />

resources to preserve lands <strong>of</strong> regional and statewide significance.<br />

<strong>The</strong> long term vision is to increase the South Branch Preserve<br />

to 1,000 acres to serve as a showcase <strong>for</strong> watershed restoration;<br />

community based organic farming and passive recreation including<br />

fishing and hiking.<br />

Located in Mt. Olive Township, Morris County, in the headwaters<br />

<strong>of</strong> the South Branch <strong>of</strong> the Raritan River at Budd Lake, the South<br />

Branch Preserve is a remarkable landscape containing diverse<br />

wetlands, rich <strong>for</strong>ests, tilled agricultural fields, and unique riparian<br />

corridors and magnificent scenic views. <strong>The</strong> South Branch <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Raritan River flows into the main stem <strong>of</strong> the Raritan River, one <strong>of</strong><br />

the state’s most critical water supply sources, that provides more<br />

than 1.5 million <strong>New</strong> Jersey residents with drinking water. <strong>The</strong><br />

river is classified as a Category One waterway, and native wild<br />

brook trout still live in the River. A keystone species, their presence<br />

is an indicator <strong>of</strong> river and ecosystem health. Preserving these<br />

sensitive sources <strong>of</strong> water is critical to not only trout and other<br />

wildlife, but to every resident in every municipality that draws water<br />

from this resource.<br />

South Branch Preserve Addition I and II – 29 Acres<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>for</strong>ested 10-acre Able property was the second to be added to<br />

the South Branch Preserve since it was established in June 2010<br />

and was the 300th property preserved by <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>.<br />

Both the Able and the 19-acre Smith/Marra property immediately<br />

adjoin <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s South Branch Preserve<br />

10-acre addition to the South Branch Preserve, Mount Olive Twp.<br />

Restoration Site. <strong>The</strong> addition <strong>of</strong> the Able and Smith/Marra<br />

properties to the Preserve is critical, as they lie upstream from the<br />

restoration project, and could have posed significant threats to the<br />

restoration ef<strong>for</strong>t if development had been allowed to occur here.<br />

South Branch Preserve Addition III - 209 Acres<br />

Approximately three quarters <strong>of</strong> a mile <strong>of</strong> the South Branch <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Raritan River runs through the main portion <strong>of</strong> this 209-acre property.<br />

Far reaching plans are being developed <strong>for</strong> managing and restoring<br />

the <strong>for</strong>mer West King property (now known as the North Section <strong>of</strong><br />

the Preserve) to ensure it protects the South Branch <strong>of</strong> the Raritan<br />

River and provides opportunities <strong>for</strong> public enjoyment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>for</strong>mer West King Property - South Branch Preserve, Mount Olive Twp.<br />

Perched above the South Branch <strong>of</strong> the Raritan River, this land<br />

contains many small tributaries, springs and seeps that make up the<br />

headwaters <strong>of</strong> the South Branch. Many species live in these <strong>for</strong>ested<br />

uplands, and breed in the ponds that are along the river corridor.<br />

With the expanse <strong>of</strong> river captured by this acreage, preserving<br />

these parcels is considered a high priority by the partnership<br />

<strong>of</strong> organizations that has <strong>for</strong>med to establish the South Branch<br />

Preserve.<br />

Frelinghuysen Forest Preserve – 160 Acres<br />

Frelinghuysen Township, Warren County<br />

Once slated <strong>for</strong> development, the Frelinghuysen Forest Preserve<br />

boasts a beautiful <strong>for</strong>est with small streams and an existing network<br />

<strong>of</strong> trails leading back to a picturesque pond. Habitat <strong>for</strong> sensitive<br />

species, springs, seeps and headwater streams make the land<br />

valuable <strong>for</strong> natural resource protection. <strong>The</strong> property is easily<br />

accessible from State Route 94 and Lincoln Laurel Road. <strong>The</strong><br />

Preserve will <strong>of</strong>fer hiking trails, bird watching plat<strong>for</strong>ms, and will<br />

be a classroom in nature <strong>for</strong> recreational hikers, school children and<br />

scout groups.<br />

Pompton Riverwalk XIV, XV, and XVI - 0.75 Acres<br />

Pequannock Township, Morris County<br />

<strong>The</strong> Soldatenkov, Gidi and Weir properties are the final three<br />

<strong>of</strong> six properties preserved in the fourth phase <strong>of</strong> the Pompton<br />

Riverwalk project. <strong>The</strong> Pompton Riverwalk is a multi-phase project<br />

which began in 2007. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> is working with the<br />

Township <strong>of</strong> Pequannock in the development and expansion <strong>of</strong> this<br />

Blueway program to provide flood protection <strong>for</strong> severely impacted<br />

residences and private property, while creating new public recreation<br />

opportunities in the community. Homes around the banks <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Pompton River have long suffered from flooding. Rather than<br />

continuing in the model <strong>of</strong> flood and rescue, Pequannock Township<br />

<strong>of</strong>ficials and the Open Space Advisory Committee decided to pursue<br />

a new strategy. This program targets the most flood prone homes<br />

and streets in the municipality. <strong>The</strong> 16 lots that have been preserved<br />

thus far have been subsequently cleared to provide flood storage<br />

and a new community park has been created, locally known as the<br />

Pompton Riverwalk. <strong>The</strong> Township and <strong>Conservancy</strong> are now<br />

entering Phase V <strong>of</strong> the Riverwalk.<br />

Expanding our public parks and recreation areas to provide<br />

opportunities <strong>for</strong> all to enjoy the outdoors, play safely, and lead an<br />

active and healthy lifestyle<br />

Nosenzo Pond Park – 27 Acres<br />

West Mil<strong>for</strong>d Township, Passaic County<br />

After leasing the 27 acre park <strong>for</strong> several years, the Township<br />

purchased Nosenzo Pond Park with assistance from <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong>. Located near the intersection <strong>of</strong> Lower Starlight<br />

Road and Nosenzo Pond Road, this new park provides an important<br />

addition to the lands owned by West Mil<strong>for</strong>d <strong>for</strong> recreation and<br />

conservation. In addition to preserving critical open space adjacent<br />

to a body <strong>of</strong> water, owning the land will allow the Township<br />

more freedom in deciding how this parkland will be used in the<br />

future. <strong>The</strong> park is an ideal recreation area with several ball fields,<br />

a playground <strong>for</strong> younger children, a pond <strong>for</strong> swimming and a<br />

pavilion <strong>for</strong> outdoor events.<br />

Stobaeus Park Expansion IV- 0.5 Acres<br />

Florham Park Borough, Morris County<br />

With land at a premium, the expansion <strong>of</strong> Stobaeus Park has been<br />

Florham Park’s top open space priority. Measuring in at 7 acres,the<br />

park is one <strong>of</strong> only three municipal parks in Florham Park. Though<br />

Stobaeus Park is the Borough’s smallest park, it <strong>of</strong>fers a diversity <strong>of</strong><br />

recreational opportunities, including a playground, a baseball field<br />

and a hiking trail through the woods.<br />

Weber Tract – 162 Acres<br />

Kinnelon Borough, Morris County<br />

<strong>The</strong> preservation <strong>of</strong> this property is the culmination <strong>of</strong> a multiyear<br />

ef<strong>for</strong>t to protect this critically situated land in the <strong>New</strong> Jersey<br />

Highlands. <strong>The</strong> Borough <strong>of</strong> Kinnelon now owns 100 acres <strong>of</strong> the<br />

property and a 62-acre portion <strong>of</strong> the land was added to Morris<br />

County’s 1,400 acre Silas Condict County Park. This site provides<br />

habitat <strong>for</strong> a diverse collection <strong>of</strong> species on the federal and state<br />

threatened and endangered species list and af<strong>for</strong>ds exceptional<br />

views <strong>of</strong> the surrounding landscape. <strong>The</strong> land will become part <strong>of</strong><br />

the Pequannock River Greenway, an interconnected greenbelt that<br />

extends north from the Silas Condict County Park into neighboring<br />

West Mil<strong>for</strong>d Township.<br />

Lodestar Park Expansion II – 47 Acres<br />

Fredon Township, Sussex County<br />

With the purchase <strong>of</strong> the <strong>for</strong>mer Marpol property, Fredon Township<br />

has added 47 acres to Lodestar Park, enabling the Township to<br />

expand the park’s trail network and enhance the recreational<br />

activities available to local residents. <strong>The</strong> park is a center <strong>for</strong><br />

recreation and social gatherings in the Township.<br />

Highlands Trail Project - 7 Acres<br />

Byram Township, Sussex County<br />

This 7-acre project consists <strong>of</strong> four small lots along the northern<br />

edge <strong>of</strong> Lake Lackawanna. <strong>The</strong> proposed route <strong>for</strong> the Highlands<br />

Trail runs across the property. Byram Township owns the adjoining<br />

property and is working to preserve the properties to the north and<br />

south in order to permanently and <strong>for</strong>mally establish the Highlands<br />

Trail.<br />

Stewartsville Greenway - 38 Acres<br />

Greenwich Township, Warren County<br />

<strong>The</strong> Amey farm is part <strong>of</strong> a planned greenway that is intended<br />

to help meet the regional goal <strong>of</strong> the <strong>New</strong> Jersey Department <strong>of</strong><br />

Transportation to preserve the rural nature <strong>of</strong> the Route 57 corridor<br />

and the transitional land from Stewartsville to the surrounding<br />

rural countryside. <strong>The</strong> proximity <strong>of</strong> the property to downtown<br />

Stewartsville and the state highway made the threat <strong>of</strong> development<br />

significant. <strong>The</strong> land will initially be used <strong>for</strong> agriculture while in<br />

the future a hiking trail around the periphery <strong>of</strong> the farm fields will<br />

be developed so the public can enjoy the rural qualities <strong>of</strong> the site.<br />

Dumont Road Farm – 92 Acres<br />

Greenwich Township, Warren County<br />

This 92-acre farm is located in the Highlands Planning Area <strong>of</strong><br />

Greenwich Township. Preservation <strong>of</strong> this property will maintain<br />

the rural and scenic character <strong>of</strong> the area, while protecting the soils<br />

<strong>for</strong> future farming and food production. This is the last farm in<br />

a commercial zone in Greenwich Township and is contiguous to<br />

unrestricted farms.<br />

Leavens Farm - 57 Acres<br />

Franklin Township, Warren County<br />

<strong>The</strong> 57-acre Leavens Farm is located in the village <strong>of</strong> Asbury,<br />

Franklin Township. Part <strong>of</strong> the property hosts Apple Valley Farm,<br />

an organic Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) project. <strong>The</strong><br />

farm is located within Franklin Township’s Musconetcong Valley<br />

Farmland Preservation Project Area, the Township’s highest priority<br />

area <strong>for</strong> farmland preservation.<br />

Santini Farm – 88 Acres<br />

Franklin Township, Warren County<br />

<strong>The</strong> 88-acre Santini Farm is part <strong>of</strong> a rich agricultural farmbelt near<br />

Warren County’s southern border with Hunterdon County. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> worked with the Warren County Freeholders to<br />

preserve the property. Located along Willow Grove Road on the<br />

southwestern slopes <strong>of</strong> Pohatcong Mountain, this farm has sweeping<br />

views and is readily visible from the Pohatcong Valley. <strong>The</strong> farm<br />

is located within the Pohatcong Ridge Project Area identified in the<br />

Township’s Comprehensive Farmland Preservation Plan.<br />

Ron Sigler, Sr. Farm – 20 Acres<br />

Franklin Township, Warren County<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> worked with Franklin Township and Warren<br />

County on the preservation <strong>of</strong> the 20-acre R. Sigler, Sr. Farm. <strong>The</strong><br />

farm is located in close proximity to other preserved farmland and<br />

with the preservation <strong>of</strong> this farm, there is now a contiguous belt <strong>of</strong><br />

828 acres <strong>of</strong> preserved farmland stretching across Mountain View<br />

Road in the heart <strong>of</strong> Franklin Township.<br />

PARTNERS FOR GREENER<br />

COMMUNITIES<br />

Since 1995, through our <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Greener</strong> <strong>Communities</strong><br />

program, we have worked with 66 different governmental<br />

and non-pr<strong>of</strong>it organizations in 11 counties protecting 13,632 acres<br />

<strong>of</strong> stunning open space <strong>for</strong> recreation, conservation, and watershed<br />

preservation. Our staff works hand-in-hand with committed,<br />

dedicated local <strong>of</strong>ficials and volunteers to identify and purchase open<br />

space and farmland. <strong>The</strong>re has been a spectacular rise in the support<br />

<strong>of</strong> “farm to table” markets, and our ef<strong>for</strong>ts to increase the amount <strong>of</strong><br />

farmland preserved in <strong>New</strong> Jersey has yield results that are making a<br />

difference at local farmer markets and in grocery baskets. “Second<br />

generation” use <strong>of</strong> public lands has led to a clamoring <strong>for</strong> easier and<br />

greater access to preserved land with more people out on local trails<br />

and more communities planning <strong>for</strong> outdoor recreation including<br />

hiking and bicycling <strong>for</strong> their residents. <strong>The</strong> economy has had an<br />

equal, if not greater, impact on conservation ef<strong>for</strong>ts. Leveraging<br />

dollars and accessing new sources <strong>of</strong> funding has taken on a keener<br />

focus and with our assistance, towns have achieved remarkable results<br />

with more outside dollars supporting acquisition on a local level.<br />

In terms <strong>of</strong> the numbers, this is what we have achieved in<br />

2011 and in <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Greener</strong> <strong>Communities</strong> overall:<br />

Accomplishments 2011 1995-2011<br />

Acres preserved: 938 13,632<br />

Grants received: $8,442,150 $219,120,775<br />

Plans completed: 13 92<br />

Total # <strong>of</strong> partners: 34 66<br />

In 2011 we continued to negotiate prices that are below certified<br />

market value. We continue to strengthen our partnerships with<br />

private agencies and authorities, park agencies, governments, and<br />

nonpr<strong>of</strong>it organizations to ensure a broader spectrum <strong>of</strong> financial<br />

resources <strong>for</strong> the future. Twenty-five percent <strong>of</strong> the funding which<br />

was used to purchase the land this year was from sources outside<br />

<strong>of</strong> the typical grants used <strong>for</strong> land transactions. Our planning work<br />

also took on an innovative look at protection, expanding our reach<br />

beyond preservation planning to documenting our street trees, our<br />

groundwater, and our environment. Recreation took on an expanded<br />

role, with numerous communities completing trail plans and<br />

greenway studies to ensure that healthy lifestyle choices were easily<br />

accessible to local neighborhoods and schools.<br />

Some <strong>of</strong> our 2011 successes include:<br />

• Worked with water purveyors to help accomplish their goal <strong>of</strong><br />

preserving drinking water quality. We continue to partner with the<br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey Water Supply Authority and Morris County Municipal<br />

Utilities Authority to preserve vital drinking water resources,<br />

expanding the South Branch Preserve in Mt. Olive Township.<br />

Mark Taylor, Ken Roser, Blaine Rothauser, Anthony and<br />

Andrew Lee, members <strong>of</strong> the Florham Park Environmental<br />

Commission, attend an open space tour - a first step in<br />

completing an updated Open Space and Recreation Plan.<br />

• Morris County announced the development <strong>of</strong> a flood mitigation<br />

program based on the successful model <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong><br />

has designed and put into place in Pequannock Township targeting<br />

the most flood prone homes and streets in the municipality. By<br />

the end <strong>of</strong> 2011, 16 lots that were acquired under this program<br />

in Pequannock have been subsequently cleared to provide flood<br />

storage. Through their preservation, a new community park has<br />

been created, locally known as a “river walk” or “Blueway”.<br />

• As part <strong>of</strong> Morristown’s sustainability initiative, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> completed the Town’s inventory <strong>of</strong> urban street trees,<br />

identifying the individual trees gracing the Township’s roads and<br />

sidewalks. Each tree was catalogued using a handheld GPS unit<br />

with in<strong>for</strong>mation on the tree’s health, location, and appearance.<br />

As a result, the establishment <strong>of</strong> a Shade Tree Commission has<br />

been approved, to work hand in hand with the Department <strong>of</strong><br />

Engineering, Office <strong>of</strong> Sustainability, and Department <strong>of</strong> Public<br />

Works, to ensure the future health and viability <strong>of</strong> Morristown’s<br />

street trees.<br />

PARTNERS FOR PARKS EDUCATION<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey has been steadfast in its commitment<br />

to help maintain and improve parkland and historic sites throughout the state<br />

through our <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks Program. <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks is <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s<br />

corporate volunteer stewardship program, established to help fill the gap between<br />

the parks’ needs and the resources available to them. While helping the parks<br />

complete projects, volunteers experience a “hands-on” opportunity to learn how to<br />

care <strong>for</strong> the land while enjoying a team-building experience with their colleagues.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks Program benefits all concerned.<br />

In 2011 <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks arranged stewardship projects <strong>for</strong> 20 corporate<br />

volunteer groups throughout the northern part <strong>of</strong> the state with the help <strong>of</strong> 351<br />

volunteers. Our partners <strong>for</strong> 2011 were Goldman, Sachs & Co., GlaxoSmithKline,<br />

Investors Bank, Merck & Co., BASF, Pfizer, Bristol Myers-Squibb, Timberland,<br />

UPS, Prudential, NJ Nets, Mars, Toyota and Lexus.<br />

Since 1996 <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks has completed 489 projects throughout 10 <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey counties with the help <strong>of</strong> 8,005 volunteers! Seen below are examples <strong>of</strong><br />

some <strong>of</strong> the significant contributions made by our corporate partners this past year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 2011 Scholarship Program<br />

Steven Sheets <strong>of</strong> Rockaway was awarded the 2011 Rogers<br />

Family Scholarship and Brian Curry <strong>of</strong> North Brunswick<br />

was awarded the 2011 Russell W. Myers Scholarship. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> grants two awards yearly to outstanding <strong>New</strong> Jersey<br />

college students studying in an environmental field. Each student<br />

received $7,750. Since 1984, $163,500 has been awarded to 42<br />

deserving college students by the <strong>Conservancy</strong>, helping to develop<br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey’s future environmental leaders.<br />

Steven Sheets is a junior at Delaware Valley College where he is<br />

pursuing a degree in Environmental Science. Steven spent last<br />

summer working at Picatinny Arsenal conducting research into<br />

advanced wastewater treatment technologies. During the school<br />

year he works as both a resident assistant and a student tutor at<br />

Delaware Valley College.<br />

Brian Curry is a senior at Rutgers, <strong>The</strong> State University <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey, studying Environmental Planning and Design. Brian has<br />

been working on a self-initiated project to create a wildlife program<br />

at Davidson Mill Pond Park in South Brunswick. <strong>The</strong> program<br />

aims to integrate technology and nature to teach local children<br />

about the importance <strong>of</strong> conservation and sustainable living through<br />

experimental learning in an outdoor classroom.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Russell W. Myers Scholarship was established in 1983 to honor<br />

the <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s founder. <strong>The</strong> late Mr. Myers was the first director<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Morris County Park Commission. <strong>The</strong> Rogers Family<br />

Scholarship was established in 2005 by Gray and Mollie Rogers,<br />

dedicated conservationists who wanted to expand the <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s<br />

educational support <strong>for</strong> outstanding conservation-minded <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey college students.<br />

Interns Help <strong>Conservancy</strong> Achieve its Goals<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> prides itself on the high quality, high caliber<br />

student interns who work with our staff on planning, acquisition<br />

and stewardship projects. This year has been no exception. Since<br />

2000 we have hired 55 interns, from a myriad <strong>of</strong> institutions and a<br />

diversity <strong>of</strong> majors, all with an enthusiasm <strong>for</strong> the outdoors and land<br />

conservation.<br />

Thank you to our 2011 Interns:<br />

• Christine Bell - Rutgers University Bloustein<br />

School <strong>of</strong> Planning and Public Policy<br />

• Kyle Davis – Rutgers University Bloustein<br />

School <strong>of</strong> Planning and Public Policy<br />

• Luke Hamilton – Drew University<br />

• Karin La Greca – Ramapo College<br />

In 2011 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> recognized Rutgers University<br />

Bloustein School <strong>of</strong> Planning and Public Policy on its 20th<br />

Anniversary. We hired our first Bloustein intern in 2005 and since<br />

then have hired 14 Bloustein students and graduates as interns,<br />

consultants, and staff. <strong>The</strong>y have achieved remarkable results:<br />

Between 2005 and 2011 Bloustein students have helped complete<br />

30 plans directly resulting in the preservation <strong>of</strong> 1,454 acres and the<br />

receipt <strong>of</strong> $45 million in grant funds.<br />

Richard M Sargent Intern<br />

Christine Bell was named the 2011 recipient <strong>of</strong> our Richard<br />

M. Sargent, Jr. Internship, established in memory <strong>of</strong> <strong>for</strong>mer<br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> Trustee Dick Sargent. Christine joined our staff at<br />

the beginning <strong>of</strong> her second year at the Bloustein School. An<br />

independent worker and strong researcher, Christine’s writing<br />

expertise and close attention to<br />

detail benefitted many <strong>of</strong> our local<br />

community partners through her<br />

work on their planning documents<br />

and grant applications. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> awards the Richard<br />

M. Sargent, Jr. Internship to<br />

highly accomplished and talented<br />

college students providing them<br />

the opportunity to work under the<br />

supervision <strong>of</strong> our pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

staff, benefitting both the students<br />

and the <strong>Conservancy</strong>.<br />

1981 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey was<br />

“born” when <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey’s Secretary<br />

<strong>of</strong> State signed the incorporation<br />

papers that created the Morris<br />

County Parks and Conservation<br />

Foundation. <strong>The</strong> brainchild <strong>of</strong><br />

Russell W. Meyers, the first<br />

director <strong>of</strong> the Morris County Park<br />

Commission, the organization<br />

was conceived to assist the Park<br />

Commission in accomplishing its<br />

mission and to ensure that his life’s<br />

work would continue after he was<br />

gone.<br />

1983 <strong>The</strong> Russell W. Myers<br />

Scholarship, the <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s longest<br />

continuously running program, was<br />

established, laying the foundation<br />

<strong>for</strong> our Scholarship Program. <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> provides annual awards<br />

to <strong>New</strong> Jersey college students<br />

pursuing careers in environmental<br />

preservation.<br />

CeLebraTing 30 years <strong>of</strong> <strong>Land</strong> PreservaTion<br />

1991 As its activities increased, the Morris<br />

County Parks and Conservation Foundation changed<br />

its name to Morris Parks and <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>. <strong>The</strong><br />

first issue <strong>of</strong> our <strong>New</strong>sletter<br />

was published featuring a<br />

tribute to recently deceased<br />

founder; Russell W. Myers.<br />

1995 Randolph Township<br />

became the first town to<br />

retain Morris Parks and <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> as its Open Space<br />

Advisor. Our <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Greener</strong> <strong>Communities</strong> program<br />

grew from this early ef<strong>for</strong>t to<br />

<strong>for</strong>ge partnerships with the<br />

towns to preserve open space.<br />

1997 We completed our first land<br />

acquisition project, purchasing the development<br />

rights on a 100-acre farm in Washington<br />

Township from Anthony Araneo and<br />

simultaneously transferring these rights to the<br />

Morris County Agriculture Development Board.<br />

Page 10<br />

2010 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey partnered with Mount Olive<br />

Township, Morris County, the State <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>New</strong> Jersey, and <strong>The</strong> Trust <strong>for</strong> Public <strong>Land</strong><br />

to preserve the 135-acre Rezamir Estates<br />

property. Preserving this site was critical<br />

because it lies within the headwaters<br />

<strong>of</strong> the South Branch <strong>of</strong> the Raritan<br />

River, a drinking water source <strong>for</strong> more<br />

than 1.5 million <strong>New</strong> Jersey residents.<br />

Following the closing the <strong>Conservancy</strong><br />

took ownership <strong>of</strong> the property and began<br />

work to restore the land to its natural state.<br />

We completed the first restoration <strong>of</strong> a<br />

residential subdivision ever accomplished<br />

in <strong>New</strong> Jersey!<br />

1994 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> hired<br />

its first permanent staff, David<br />

Epstein became the first full time<br />

Executive Director and still leads<br />

the organization to this day.<br />

1996 Eight volunteers from the Florham Park <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> the Prudential<br />

Insurance Company <strong>of</strong> America improved the landscaping in Jefferson’s popular<br />

Children’s Park. This volunteer project launched<br />

the <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s award winning <strong>Partners</strong> <strong>for</strong> Parks<br />

Program that continues to put volunteer teams to<br />

work on one day projects to beautify and maintain our<br />

region’s magnificent parks.<br />

1999 Morris Parks and<br />

<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> changed<br />

its name to Morris <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong>. We preserved<br />

our 1,000th acre, as a result<br />

<strong>of</strong> projects in Randolph, West<br />

Mil<strong>for</strong>d, Pequannock, Madison,<br />

Mt. Olive and Kinnelon.<br />

2008 With the scope <strong>of</strong><br />

our work reaching far beyond<br />

the Morris County area Morris<br />

<strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> changed our<br />

name to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey.<br />

2006 <strong>The</strong> Rogers Family<br />

Scholarship was established<br />

greatly expanding the impact<br />

<strong>of</strong> our Scholarship Program.<br />

Since then we have awarded two<br />

scholarships annually to <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey college students.<br />

2005 We preserved our<br />

10,000th acre highlighted by the<br />

852-acre Culvermere property<br />

in Sussex County added to the Bear Swamp Wildlife Management Area;<br />

the 525-acre Koehler Estate property, added to the Wildcat Ridge Wildlife<br />

Management Area; and the 1,200-acre Lam property in Kinnelon added to<br />

the Morris County Park System. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> was honored to receive<br />

the U.S. Department <strong>of</strong> the Interior’s Take Pride in America award and the<br />

N.J. Department <strong>of</strong> Environmental Protection’s Environmental Excellence<br />

Award <strong>for</strong> <strong>Land</strong> Conservation.<br />

2009 Achieving recognition on the<br />

national level, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong><br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey became the first land trust<br />

in <strong>New</strong> Jersey to receive accreditation.<br />

Awarded by <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> Trust Accreditation<br />

Commission. <strong>The</strong> accreditation seal is<br />

awarded to organizations that meet<br />

national quality standards <strong>for</strong><br />

protecting open space<br />

lands, upholding<br />

the public trust and<br />

ensuring that preservation<br />

ef<strong>for</strong>ts are permanent.<br />

We deeply value the collaboration<br />

between <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> and our school as<br />

we both strive to provide residents <strong>of</strong> our state<br />

with sound preservation and sustainable land<br />

use. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> provides our students<br />

with internships where they can apply their<br />

classroom knowledge to real world problems.<br />

This has the dual benefit <strong>of</strong> enhancing their<br />

educational experience and quality <strong>of</strong> life<br />

<strong>for</strong> residents <strong>of</strong> our state. Without the vision<br />

and hard work <strong>of</strong> your membership <strong>New</strong><br />

Jersey would not be as green as it is today. We<br />

wish <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> Jersey<br />

many continued years <strong>of</strong> success and hope to<br />

continue our successful partnership.<br />

“ Congratulations to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>!<br />

It has been a pleasure working with <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong><br />

<strong>Conservancy</strong> <strong>for</strong> more than a decade. That<br />

partnership has been a very successful one<br />

by any measure. With the able assistance <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> the Borough has been<br />

awarded $11,325,500 in grant funds since 2000.<br />

Thanks to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong>’s expertise, the<br />

Borough has also preserved 154 acres <strong>of</strong> pristine<br />

woodlands, meadows and an historic farm, and is<br />

working on additional open space and farmland<br />

preservation projects. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Conservancy</strong> did<br />

a masterful job <strong>of</strong> updating the Borough’s Open<br />

Space and Recreation Plan in March <strong>of</strong> this<br />

year, and worked extremely well on these projects<br />

with many <strong>of</strong> our committees. We look <strong>for</strong>ward to<br />

working with you <strong>for</strong> many years.<br />
