    The Sun

    Nassau Tennis Club has madea shift to involve as many mem-bers of the Montgomery Town-ship community as possible in itsfundraising efforts on behalf ofMontgomery first responders.NTC included the MontgomeryEmergency Medical Services,Montgomery Township Police De-partment and Montgomery Town-ship Volunteer Fire CompaniesNos. 1 and 2.

    On Thursday, March 13, NTCpresented a check for $2,500 to thefirst responders as a result of thePresidents Day Weekend TennisTournament. Held from Saturday,Feb. 15 to Monday, Feb. 17, the sec-ond community-wide fundraisingtournament was held at the clubs

    indoor tennis facility and drew an

    estimated 70 people.We saw a lot more people

    come out than last year, whichwas really exciting, BentonCamper, owner and manager ofthe club, said.

    The tournament was geared to-ward adults older than 18, and in-cluded doubles and singles eventsfor men and women at UnitedStates Tennis Association levelsranging from 3.0 to 4.0.

    It was really pretty cool, be-cause since the whole event wasto benefit the Montgomery firstresponders, it was great to see alldifferent people from the publiccome out and participate, not justclub members, Camper said.

    The invitation to the publicsuggested that players make a do-nation upon their participation in

    the tournament, then the club

    would match every dollar donat-ed by participants up to $2,000.However, due to the success of theevent, Camper explained thatthey exceeded their own expecta-tion.

    We had a goal of matching upto $2,000 of donations, and due tothe large turnout, we were able togive $2,500 to the organizations.We got more members of the com-munity out here and we were ableto donate more this year than anyother year, so it was really a nicesurprise, Camper said.

    Camper explained that the clubhad donated to the organizationsprivately for the past severalyears, but opening the opportuni-ty to Montgomery residents to be

    The SunAt the Montgomery Township

    Green Acres Scoping Hearing onMarch 11, about 40 township resi-dents took in a presentation fromWilliams Company, the entity incharge of the Transco natural gastransmission pipeline expansion,about its compliance with thestate Department of Environ-mental Protections Green Acresprogram regulations. The pur-pose of the scoping meeting was

    to hear concerns from townshipresidents about the effects of thepipeline expansion on the town-ships Green Acres land.

    The Transco pipeline is amajor transporter of natural gasin the southeast and northeast-ern United States. The expansionwould increase the service oflocal gas distribution companiesalong the Atlantic Seaboard bylate 2015.

    The Leidy Southeast Expan-sion is comprised of four newloops or pipe sections, two inNew Jersey. The pipeline loopsare varied in length, andWilliams Co. prefers they run par-allel to the existing Transco

    pipeline.The Skillman Loop is a pro-

    posed 6.31-mile loop of 42-inchpipe that will impact several

    Montgomery properties in Som-erset County, including township-owned and privately-owned land.The Skillman loop also impactsareas in Mercer County inPrinceton Township. A completelist of affected properties can befound on the township website,www.twp.montgomery.nj.us.

    During the meeting, represen-tatives from Williams Co. present-ed their reasons for the project,discussed their alternatives fordisposal or diversion of parklandaffected and accepted public com-

    ment and questions.The Federal Energy Regulato-

    able to give back in their own waywas important, in addition to ex-panding the impact by running aweekend-long tournament.

    Camper feels the first-respon-der organizations deserve thecommunitys support not only be-cause of the general need for

    funds and upkeep, but because ofhis own personal experiences.

    On a personal side, all of

    those organizations have beenvery helpful to me and my family,the EMS and police and fire de-partments. They have been therewhenever we needed them andhave been so proactive in helpingme with anything involving thebusiness as well, so it just feltright to be able to give back,Camper said.

    The tournament is shaping upto become an annual event ac-cording to NTC, and Camper ex-plained that the club is always

    hoping to do more with the com-munity and find new opportuni-ties to get residents involved.

    hursday. It cant come soon

    enough. Officially, thats the

    start of spring. Whether Moth-

    er Nature agrees, though, is anyones

    guess at this point. Early forecasts

    show that she will be good to us, but

    how much can we actually rely on

    forecasts?Spring is what we all need. We need

    a nice stroll downtown, in the park or

    on the beach to reinvigorate us, to get

    us out of the doldrum into which win-

    ter plunged us. Winter this year has

    not just affected all of our moods, it

    has affected our bottom lines, too.

    Well all most likely be paying more

    in taxes, in some way, at some level, forthe extensive snow removal, pothole

    repairs and salt purchases.

    Snow has affected local businesses

    as well, especially retail shops. Bad

    weather kept patrons inside from what

    seemed like October through now. The

    arrival of spring will hopefully turn

    that around, and quickly.

    Snow kept our schoolchildren at

    home which, at the time, they loved

    but it will also keep them in school

    much longer into the summer. Whoknows how that will affect summer

    travel plans? It looks like June 2014

    might be scratched off from summer

    altogether.

    Snow and biting cold has kept peo-

    ple in the mindset of no end in sight,

    and has prevented many from taking

    day trips to our states wonderful good-

    weather spots, or from planning future

    trips, as well.In a little more than 60 days, the offi-

    cial start of the summer beach season

    will be here. Does that even sound

    right?

    New Jersey relies heavily on

    tourism, especially at the Shore dur-

    ing the summer. Last summer was

    hurt by the aftermath of Hurricane

    Sandy. Will this summer be hurt bymore bad weather?

    Lets hope not.

    in our opinion

    Hello, spring, are you here yet?Ourmoods, our businesses, our livelihoods depend on your arrival

    Your thoughts

    What are you most looking forward to thisspring? While you are out and aboutenjoying what hopefully will be beautifulweather, send us the photos you takealong the way, and well be happy to sharethem with the rest of the town.

    The committee tasked with developing acomprehensive public-access plan at the247-acre Skillman Park is continuing thedesign development of the loop trail and

    examining other low-intensity uses.The most recent meeting of the Skill-man Park Planning Committee was heldFeb. 25. The committee includes Mont-gomery Township residents Lysa Wilsonand Emad Abou-Sab, Township OpenSpace Committee member Clem Fiori,Somerset County Freeholder DirectorPatrick Scaglione, and Freeholder DeputyDirector Mark Caliguire and County Ad-ministrator Michael J. Amorosa.

    At its meeting, the committee discussedthe progress of the loop trail design. Thestate permit review process is ongoing and

    the consultant continues to develop theconstruction plans and details for the ap-proximately 2.25-mile paved trail and threenew parking areas. Once all permits arereceived, the plans will be completed andthe project will be bid. Construction is ex-

    pected to begin in mid-May with an antici-pated completion in early fall.

    We are very excited with the progressof the park development and anxious to of-

    ficially open the park to the public, saidScaglione. Significant progress has beenmade with the site clean-up and the proper-ty is taking on a look that was originallyenvisioned for the park.

    In addition to the development of theloop trail, the committee discussed otherongoing park improvements. New fencingand trees were installed at the entrances tothe park and around the cemetery. With theassistance of local Girl Scout Troop 236,cemetery cleanup has been completed.The county and municipality continue towork together on a small reforestation

    project at the site of a former structureand the county is developing a wetlandsrestoration-planting plan for the formerSylvan Lake impoundment area. The com-mittee also continues to discuss other pos-sible low-intensity, passive uses for the

    park.The development is in keeping with

    the original intent of a passive-use park,said Caliguire. The reforestation and wet-

    lands restoration projects complement theother planned uses nicely and will encour-age patrons to utilize the park for naturewalks and bird watching.

    The committee will meet again duringthe summer to discuss the progress of thetrail development and to continue discus-sions for other passive recreational andconservation opportunities within thepark.

    ry Commission will determinewhether the expansion project isneeded and if it is in the publicsbest interest.

    Transco filed the FERC appli-cation to be issued a Certificate of

    Public Convenience and Necessi-ty in October 2013, and pendingits approval, the project willbegin in early 2015.

    According to John B. Todd,project manager of Williams Co.,the application for the companyspreferred pipeline expansionroute would likely be approved.

    We believe we have demon-strated a significant need for it,Todd said.

    The presentation explainedthat the expansion of existing

    right of ways as needed for theproject is the preferred route be-cause it would lessen the land useimpact and make expansion safer,easier to monitor and more effi-cient.

    Members of the communityraised many questions concern-ing safety, traffic, proximity ofconstruction to schools and com-munity centers, as well as envi-ronmental impact.

    We have been trying to get out

    in the field and do species inven-tory. We wrote our recommenda-

    tions to FERC including a specificlist of what would need to be re-placed.

    We are doing the best we canto see that impacts in terms ofvegetation and wildlife are less-ened. We have said as much as wecan to Williams, our commentsare on record and now we have todo the best we can to be present,said Clem Fiori, Montgomery

    Township Open Space Committeechairman.Information on the project is

    available at www.ferc.gov withthe docket number: CP13-551.
