What it does
The bill would amend the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act to authorize a study of the Upper Raritan River Watershed in New Jersey—including the North Branch, South Branch, and Lamington-Black Rivers and their tributaries—for potential inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. It requires the Secretary of the Interior to complete the study and submit a report to Congress within three years of funding being made available. The study aims to assess whether these river segments meet the criteria for federal protection under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.
