WELL INSPECTION & GROUNDWATER SAMPLING

Roche retains responsibility for the environmental cleanup of the former Roche Nutley site. A dedicated Roche team is working under the oversight of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). As part of this work, Roche is required to take regular groundwater measurements and samples from various wells installed both on-site and on several streets in Clifton/Nutley. 

Weather permitting, the sampling will begin on the listed date and continue at various locations for up to eight weeks. Sampling will involve a small truck and one or two crew members to carry out the work. The work will be conducted between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. During this time, residents will have full access to their streets.

The next planned well inspection and groundwater sampling will begin:
February 2025
