A $23 million project that dredged Newton Lake, Peter’s Creek and two ponds adjacent to the lake is out of the water. Launched in August of 2020 by the Board of Commissioners and the Camden County Municipal Utilities Authority (CCMUA,) the expansive project aimed to improve the water quality of these bodies of water. “This project has been an all-hands-on deck effort and its yet another substantial investment we have made into improving the health of our county’s waterways and natural landscapes,” said Commissioner Jeff Nash, liaison to the Parks Department. “Projects like this allow our residents and visitors to get continued enjoyment of Camden County’s parks and green spaces.
