The North Hudson Sewerage Authority Long Term Control Plan twitter account. Safeguarding the waterways of Hoboken, Weehawken, Union City, and West New York.
Did you know that NHSA has a Waterbody Advisory System with a live view showing when each CSO is overflowing? This is real-time, and a useful guide to anyone who recreates in the Hudson River off the Hoboken shore. Check it now at https://t.co/L9qIRDBugb
The NJDEP has announced that NHSA is the recipient of a $300,000 grant for green infrastructure projects! The projects include the installation of three stormwater planter boxes, each diverting about 4,300 gallons of rainwater per storm event.

Our Collections Crews have been working ever since the storm ended. They clean and inspect all of the regulators, pump stations, and outfall bar screens. They also assist with cleanup of the areas hardest hit by flooding. A BIG Thank You to the team for all of their hard work.
It was a very challenging week for NHSA. We had over 3 inches of rain on Friday due to Tropical Storm Fay. It was the most rain since May 5, 2017. Our rain gauge showed a 15-minute peak intensity of 1.96 inches per hour, and that was after we already had 2 inches!
High Tide was at 1:34 PM, and both the H1 and H5 Wet Weather Pump Stations were pumping throughout the storm. The flows at the Adams Street plant were over 30 Million Gallons Per Day (MGD) for 8 hours, and were peaking around 36 MGD.
We had a very high intensity storm yesterday. Total rain was 1.59 inches on our rain gauge, and there was a peak 15-minute intensity of 3.72 inches per hour. Our crews our out inspecting and cleaning the regulators, screens, and pump stations now.
A little over an hour until our next public meeting!!! You can join online or by phone. Check out the front page of https://t.co/nIgGO35KFp for log in instructions.
Less than a week until our LTCP Public Meeting! Come out to 1600 Adams Street in Hoboken on Monday March 9th at 7 PM to hear all about our plans. Let us know what you think and give us your ideas!
@cartercraft@NJDEPMcCabe@CityofHoboken@hMAG@HobokenGirlBlog @HobokenEmily @hobokenurbanist NHSA has said from the beginning that we are required to examine all technically feasible solutions. But we would apply additional criteria before submitting our recommendations to the state: relative community disruption, cost, and technical effectiveness.
