TO: Senate Energy & Environment Committee

Thank you Chairman Andrzejczak and the committee for hearing this resolution.
We are proud to support AR138.
As an environmental organization whose top priorities are clean water and open space preservation, goals which have vast bipartisan support in our state, we are thrilled to see bipartisan support on this resolution.
Rancocas Creek is one of the most important waterways in Burlington County and in New Jersey and has been the source of immense recreational and conservation activities for centuries and we urge the US Department of the interior to designate the creek as a National Water Trail to preserve this Creek for generations to come. 
Thank you for your time.
