Event will give South Seaside Park residents a chance to discuss their concerns
Some residents of South Seaside Park have long felt they are the forgotten ones in this oceanfront section of the township, far removed from the mainland. Mayor Carmen F.

Federal agency says plant in Lacey Township continues to operate safely; public hearing to be held in two weeks
An outraged Marianne Clemente came into the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) open house last night on the annual assessment of Oyster Creek Generating Station. “This is not a public hearing,” she said. The open house — which consisted NRC representatives sitting at several tables — was to give citizens the opportunity to discuss plant-related topics, including its 2011 safety report. “They have to start listening to us,” said Clemente, who attended the open house as an independent concerned citizen. “This isn’t clean energy. They’re talking about mothballing (the plant) when they should be decommissioning it.
