New Jersey’s State Historic Preservation Office CONCURS with the months of work, advocacy and research the Ramapough Lenape Indian Nation, Edward Lenik, and the Ramapough Conservancy undertook, and, as such, the NJSHPO agrees El Paso (Tenn. Gas) engaged in deficient data gathering and field testing of archaeological resources in the Ramapo Mountains.
Thank you NJ State Historic Preservation Office, Dan Saunders and Vincent Maresca for your courage and industry, Ed Lenik for your brilliant mind, and Ramapough Lenape Indian Nation, especially, Dwayne Perry and Vincent Mann for your tenacity and knowledge. Ramapough Conservancy also thanks David Epstein, a local resident, for his deep conservation experience and ideas.
This is yet another example of how the Ramapough Conservancy can bring the Native Americans, contemporary great minds like Edward Lenik, and the resources of our local resident leadership in Ramapough Conservancy all together for a fabulous result for all of our history and our children. (Please consider donating to us to support this great research and advocacy we are doing for the Ramapo Mountains. You can find out more about donation on our Facebook page.)
See attached for the NJ SHPO letter, along with references to the meeting Ramapough Conservancy chaired in October of 2010 cited in support of their conclusions.
