About The Baykeeper
NY/NJ Baykeeper is the citizen guardian of the Hudson-Raritan
Estuary. Since 1990, we've worked to protect, preserve, and restore the
environment of the most urban estuary on Earth - benefiting its natural and
human communities.
Through our Estuary-wide programs we seek to end pollution,
improve public access, conserve and restore public lands, restore aquatic
habitats, encourage appropriate and discourage inappropriate development,
carry out public education, and work with federal and NY/NJ state regulators
and citizen groups as partners in planning for a sustainable future for the
Hudson-Raritan Estuary watershed.
Founded with the help of Hudson
Riverkeeper and the American Littoral Society in 1990,
Baykeeper is now a wholly independent nonprofit with its own 501 c3.
Baykeeper has a full and part time staff, its own Board of Directors and many
dedicated volunteers.
Baykeeper is the only bi-state full time advocate for the Hudson-Raritan
Estuary and Harbor.
