NHSA Highlights CSO Long Term Control Plan Progress at November Public Meeting

On Thursday, November 13, 2025, the North Hudson Sewerage Authority (NHSA) held a public information meeting to share updates on our Long-Term Control Plan (LTCP). The session offered an opportunity to provide clear, accessible information about ongoing infrastructure improvements and upcoming LTCP projects.

A video recap of the public meeting can be found above.

NHSA Executive Director Dr. Richard Wolff provided opening remarks, emphasizing the role of the LTCP in protecting the water quality of the Hudson River and strengthening environmental resilience across Hoboken, Weehawken, Union City, and West New York. Dr. Wolff also recognized the Community Advisory Board for their involvement in the Long Term Control Plan.

Director of Communications and LTCP Outreach Coordinator Omar Vicioso noted,“We understand that ongoing construction and improvements sometimes cause disruption. But if you start thinking about your future, your kids, the next Hurricane Sandy coming through … I think we can go through the struggle a bit longer for the bigger picture. We believe that the long term benefits — cleaner waterways, stronger infrastructure, and a more climate resilient community — will all be worth it.”

The main presentation covered NHSA’s long-term strategy for reducing CSO events and modernizing aging systems. NHSA Chief Engineer Don Conger provided progress updates on key LTCP projects, including the H6/H7 Project, the Weehawken Infrastructure Project, the Adams Street Plant Outfall, the River Road Plant, and the Madison Street Infrastructure Project. He also presented the next stages of LTCP implementation and took questions from attendees.

Following the presentation portion of the meeting, attendees were invited to tour the NHSA wastewater treatment plant with Operations Managers Mark Berube. The tour offered a behind-the-scenes look at the essential processes and technologies that keep the plant running, including a visit to the control room and lab.

NHSA appreciates the community members who joined us and contributed their feedback. Public input remains an important part of our work, and we are committed to sharing information openly as LTCP projects continue to move forward.

We will keep the public informed about future meetings and key milestones as this long-term effort progresses.

Stay tuned for updates on upcoming events and LTCP advancements!
