What is the Longest river in nj?
Record flooding in the aftermath of Hurricane Floyd in September 1999 (43 ft (13.1 m) flood crest, 15 ft (4.6 m) above flood stage) caused renewed interest in a flood control project called the Green Brook Flood Control Project, which will essentially protect Bound Brook from a 150 year flood. Two levees have been built on the perimeter of Bound Brook, but the main levee necessary to keep the Raritan River from flooding the town has not been built as of early 2007 and is not scheduled to be completed for at least another five years.
