SUMMARY:Why Is It So Hot Around Newtown Creek?
DESCRIPTION:The areas surrounding Newtown Creek are among the hottest in NYC\, with East Williamsburg ranked as the most vulnerable neighborhood for outdoor heat exposure. Join our Lunch & Learn webinar to learn about: – How extreme heat impacts community health and business operations; – Why does the lack of tree canopy —on both public streets and private properties—is making it worse; – What we learned from our 2024 street tree survey; – And where new trees could thrive\, based on an analysis of tree planting opportunities on private properties near the Creek

SUMMARY:Sewer Tunnel Bike Tour
DESCRIPTION:This 7-mile bike tour will follow the proposed route of the Department of Environmental Protection’s planned Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Storage Tunnel for Newtown Creek. Years in the making\, this massive\, multi-billion dollar infrastructure project will bring much needed relief and reduction to the repeated discharging of untreated sewage entering Newtown Creek during rain events. 2025 is a critical year for designing the tunnel and getting everything lined up to begin construction in the coming years (the project completion date is 2040). \nAlong the way\, we’ll pass pump houses\, sewer grates\, and CSO discharge points\, stopping frequently to talk about existing infrastructure and the DEP’s planned underground work. \nWe encourage those joining to be comfortable bicycling in the City – this route has adverse street conditions and frequent truck traffic. We ask that attendees fill out a liability waiver and photo consent form prior to joining\, found here. Please bring a water bottle\, snacks\, and weather-appropriate clothing. We will have limited staff in attendance to navigate and provide support. \nStart Location: Kingsland Wildflowers\, 520 Kingsland Ave.\, Brooklyn \nEnd Location: East Williamsburg \nThis program is made possible through generous support from the NYC Green Fund administered by City Parks Foundation.

SUMMARY:Newtown Creek Long Term Control Plan Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Sign up here: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIucuqprTgrHdUIGWq7VQKBzPbUvHi_2ac8#/registration \nGet involved in a critical issue: Sewage Overflow into Newtown Creek! 🚽 \nNYC DEP is currently proposing a modification to the ‘Long Term Control Plan’ (LTCP) — a NY-State approved initiative to reduce Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) in Newtown Creek. \nThe current plan will reduce overall CSO volume into Newtown Creek by approximately 61% and be complete in 2040. The proposed modification will capture more sewage and prevent the planned diversion of overflow to the East River\, but it still leaves over 350 million gallons of untreated sewage going to Newtown Creek each year. Additionally\, the modification will result in a 10-year delay toward achieving significant sewage reduction for the Dutch Kills tributary. \nNCA has long advocated for increased CSO capture. We can not wait until 2040\, to only have a ~65% reduction. Newtown Creek\, especially the small and stagnant tributaries\, can not be safe for our local communities\, or wildlife populations\, with 350+ million gallons of annual CSO. This modification is an opportunity to get us closer to actually achieving clean waters\, as well as the City’s own goal of zero CSO citywide by 2060. \nSo what can we do about it? \n1. Learn more about the proposed plan! On Thursday\, @riverkeeper and NCA will host a virtual meeting where NYC DEP will present about the proposed modification. 🔗 \n2. Speak for the Creek! Join us in asking NY State DEC (who approves the plan)\, and NYC DEP (who implements the plan) to capture as much sewage overflow as possible via Riverkeeper’s Action Alert. Comments are due Friday\, December 13.
