The Pompton Lakes council approved, as part of the consent agenda, a right-of-entry access agreement permitting the Ramble Group's subcontracted sampling work on borough property. Administrator Michael Crowell said the Ramble Group, working on behalf of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, requested access to Block 100 Lot 6 near the Waunakee River (near a local Starbucks) to conduct water sampling and that the borough required an access agreement for liability and formality.

Crowell described the action as a standard, time-limited access agreement for environmental testing and said staff had no objection beyond the usual documentation. The resolution was moved and approved as part of the consent agenda without extended debate.

The council did not disclose sampling dates or the underlying project scope beyond the description provided by the administrator.
