    This’ll be great. There’s a lawn mower in the river.

    Can you be more specific- where is it? We’ll be happy to have the PVSC remove it.

    You can’t miss it if you walk to the park from the front of Watsessing Elementary. A little after entering the park, you’ll go over a little bridge and if you’re facing Cleveland Terrace, it’s just to the right in the water.

    thanks. That makes it a lot easier to find. We’ll let the PVSC know.

    The Passaic valley Sewerage Commissioners will be coming to clean up the 2nd River in Watsessing Park at 10am TODAY Tuesday 5.10.11

    They are bringing heavy equipment and will remove large debris from the river. If you want to help in cleaning up the river and want to don waders and get in the river you will have to do it far upstream or downstream.

    The lawnmower will be a landmark of the past.

I would love to see Santorum get the nod. Maybe then the politically comatose members of society will wake up.
