There is currently a proposed Van Keuren Transfer Facility / Material Recycling Facility (TF / MRF) at 25 Van Keuren Avenue in Jersey City, NJ. This facility will bring in tons of solid waste from the entire tristate region, dramatically increasing pollution from diesel truck traffic in the area.
The Van Keuren Facility has no material benefit to our community, and it is time we act now by educating ourselves and raising awareness. Join us at this Public Hearing to learn more and oppose this facility! #ZeroMustMeanZero #CleanAirNOW
