There is little attention paid to 22% of the land in New Jersey known as the New Jersey Pinelands National Reserve. I would suspect only 22% of New Jersey population know what it is or where it is. There are many people who live within its boundaries who don’t know where the Pinelands National Reserve is located. It is best known to many as those “woods” you drive through on the way to Atlantic City or other shore points.

It also seems that state legislators and many other government officials, mostly from northern New Jersey, are clueless…
