Several Pine Barrens rivers bring freshwater into the Barnegat Bay, where it mixes with ocean water to create an estuary that supports unique plant and animal communities adapted for life at the margin of the sea. Learn how land use in the watershed affects the water quality and wildlife of the Barnegat Bay and why Pine Barrens rivers are so important to the bay’s health. The program will highlight the research and stewardship activities of the Barnegat Bay Partnership, a National Estuary Program working to protect and restore the bay’s valuable natural resources.
