March 23: Counting Eels at the Green Brook!

March 23 @ 11:00 am 12:00 pm

Did you miss the chance to squEEEAL at the eel found in the “artificial eel habitat” during the Spring 2024 eel monitoring?

Want to learn more about our search for juvenile glass eels in the Green Brook during eel migratory season 2025?

Join us on Sunday March 23, 11-noon for eel monitoring and to learn why we are so excited about these migratory superstars.

Please wear footwear and clothing that can get wet and or muddy. If you have waders, bring them along!

With thanks to the NY/NJ Harbor & Estuary for funding, to Green Brook Middle School for project partnership, and to Watershed Ambassador Brianna Casario and LRWP Intern Danielle Bongiovanni for helping to shepherd this project!

Running from March-May 2025 the LRWP will monitor for Migratory “Spring Glass Eels” in the Green Brook. This civic science eel monitoring project will augment an on-going litter reduction project, including installation of a Litter “Trash Trap” device, along the waterway between Dunellen and Middlesex. More information about the project here.
