Edison Wetlands Association Tuesday night will celebrate 20 years of protecting the Raritan River with the premiere of a NJN-produced documentary about its and other environmentalists’ efforts.

The film, which will premiere at the Forum Theatre in Metuchen, then air Wednesday on NJN–TV, chronicles such successes as the capping and treatment of the closed Kin–Buc Landfill, a Superfund site whose garbage no longer leaks into the river.
