Tuesday August 30th Update
The Office of Emergency Management anticipates remaining under a State of Emergency through 6PM Friday September 2, 2011.
As reported earlier there will be two special trash pickups for storm related debris Friday September 2 and Friday September 9, 2011.
Due to potential flooding on River Rd due to the Passaic River cresting (Expected at 8PM tonight), the sanitary sewer system may become compromised for a period of time. Should this happen we will be asking residents to refrain from using the sanitary sewers for a period of time (use of washing machines and dishwashers etc.). Residents East of Washington Ave are asked to refrain from using any water including toilets during this time to attempt to prevent backup of sewage into the homes .
Public Safety is advising residents to be aware of low hanging branches and wires and to stay clear of any downed wires. If we get flooding please do not drive through any standing or running water.
The Department of Parks is continuing tree and branch removal throughout the town and requests that any who sees a tree that appears compromised contact the Office of Emergency Management at 973-284-4936 during normal business hours and the Nutley Police Department at 973-284-4940 after hours to coordinate appropriate agency response.
Thank you on behalf of the Nutley Office of Emergency Management and Nutley Board of Commissioners.
Township of Nutley
