The biggest environmental concern in the Pine Barrens is not so much the land but what is under it - a huge, giant aquifer, built from thousands of years of rainfall passing through the near totally sandy soil. The “threat” to that from a natural gas pipeline is minimal and easily mitigated.

They are going to use existing roads in most places. The pinelands are vast. Most people who have never been to New Jersey are amazed at how much unpopulated, forested land there is. The Fort Dix (now Joint Base) reservation takes up thousands of acres as well.

I spent many,many a day in the Jersey Pines. Love it out there. lots of history out there. Old colonial tavern ruins and stage coach stops,cemeteries,cranberry bogs and blueberry fields. Some of the sugar sand roads go back to colonial days. The state of NJ owns part and some is US Forest. There are some great swimming holes out there too.

As a priest, I will pray for you when you stand before the throne of God and you are asked to give an accounting of your stewardship of this special ecological area, said Rev. David Stump, a Catholic priest from Jersey City. May God have mercy on your souls.

So was this approved despite the environmental impact studies on the protected Bigfoot species in the Pine Barrens?

But if a farmer wants to re-plow the fields he and his ancestors plowed for several hundred years can’t anymore since the NJ guv’mint found a five legged spiked nose gopher beetle living on it.

How many bodies are they going to find?

Ah yes, the New Jersey Pinelands Commission - the group that says the little puddle that appears in my front yard every six months or so when we have a real heavy rain is officially a “wetlands” area and may not be built on in any way, even though I live in the middle of a fair sized town - they should all be unprotected and on the way to extinction.....
