Project Overview
The Green Brook Flood Risk Management Project is in central New Jersey within the Raritan River Basin.

The project has been divided over numerous contracts to allow for funding. This project is the result of many damaging floods dating back to 1973 with continued flooding devastation from large storms like Floyd in 1999 and an April 2007 Nor’easter.
