NJDEP: 2010 Fish Consumption Advisories


Photo credit: NJDEP

New Jersey's revised 2010 Fish Consumption Advisories are now available. These new advisories are based on data received under Year 4 of the Routine Monitoring Program for Toxics in Fish (Monitoring Program) for the Atlantic Coastal Region (freshwater).

The results of this study demonstrate that both mercury and PCB concentrations exceed advisory trigger levels in fish of the Atlantic Coastal Region. These data justify current as well as new advisories in the water bodies studied in this region. Please contact the NJDEP, Office of Science if you have any questions.
