To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks
Our wonderful state of N.J. just spent 37 mil on a rock wall project on Rte. 46 just east of the area area a few years ago. No one I spoke to could remember a rock falling and causing injury in the their lifetime. The local joke was that someones brother or cousin was down on his luck and needed a big money contract.

The only rockfalls on that section occurred after they started working on it and destabilized the rock. The 80 section is going to be a nightmare on many levels. But this local group is also screaming about how the rockfall mitigation will cause massive traffic problems to solve a non-issue, but are suggesting they reconfigure the s-curves on which there are regular accidents. Like that won't also cause the same massive construction traffic issues.
The local mayors demanded to see the documentation of the so-called rockfall fatality, and received pages of 100% redacted text. Somebody's getting their pockets lined.
