The Aeromarine Landfill in Keyport, New Jersey has been the subject of environmental concerns for decades. Residents are asking the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to conduct a formal Preliminary Assessment and Site Inspection and evaluate the site for inclusion on the National Priorities List.
This petition asks the EPA to independently assess the site, investigate potential contamination pathways, including vapor intrusion, and determine whether the landfill qualifies for federal Superfund oversight and funding.
You do not need to live in Keyport, Monmouth County, or even New Jersey to sign. Anyone who believes communities deserve a thorough investigation of potential environmental hazards is encouraged to add their name.
By signing, you are urging the EPA to review the Aeromarine Landfill and take the steps necessary to protect public health and the environment.
Community members in Keyport and Union Beach have been instrumental in the fight for answers, action, and accountability. Throughout the summer, residents organized meetings, shared their stories, contacted elected officials, attended public hearings, and demanded a thorough investigation into the Aeromarine landfill and its potential impacts on public health.
Thanks to the efforts of residents and advocates, concerns about the Aeromarine landfill are now being heard by the media, elected officials, scientists, and government agencies.
In August 2026, the NJDEP responded to one of the community's key demands by expanding its investigation beyond the Aeromarine site to reevaluate potential exposure pathways in surrounding neighborhoods.
While many questions remain unanswered, these developments show that public engagement can make a difference. Continued community involvement will be critical as we seek answers, advocate for transparency, and push for a federal EPA review of the site.
Please sign and share this petition with your friends, family, and neighbors.
Every signature helps demonstrate the strength of community concern and reinforces the call for a federal EPA review of the Aeromarine landfill.
