The Hackensack Meadowlands Reclamation and Development Act (N.J.S.A. 13:17-1 et seq), effective Jan. 13, 1969, recognizes the importance of the Meadowlands as a unique place for new jobs, thriving communities and recreational opportunities in New Jersey. The Act created the Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission (HMDC). The agency was renamed the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission on Aug. 27, 2001.

The Hackensack Meadowlands Reclamation and Development Act also created the Hackensack Meadowlands Municipal Committee (HMMC). The HMMC consists of the chief executive of each of the 14 Meadowlands municipalities or a designated alternate. This body is charged with reviewing all proposed codes and standards, master plans or amendments, development and redevelopment, improvement plans or other major decisions of the NJMC. It has the authority to veto proposed zoning or variances.
The Meadowlands District is bordered by Route 46 on the north, Routes 1 and 9 (also known as Tonnelle Avenue) and the freight lines owned by Norfolk Southern and CSX Corp. on the east, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey’s Trans-Hudson (PATH) commuter rail lines and the Pulaski Skyway on the south, and Route 17, the Pascack Valley rail line and the Kingsland rail line on the West.
The NJMC is in, but not of, the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs. The Board of Commissioners consists of seven members: The DCA Commissioner, ex officio, or his/her alternate, traditionally serving as chairperson and six citizens from Bergen and Hudson counties appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the State Senate. The Executive Director of the NJMC, appointed by the Board, is responsible for the day-to-day operations and the implementation of Commission policies. The Executive Director also serves as the secretary to Board.
The NJMC’s campus is located at Richard W. DeKorte Park in Lyndhurst. It is named after State Assemblyman Richard W. DeKorte, who was instrumental in passing the legislation creating the NJMC. Constructed in 1982, the NJMC offices became a symbolic and literal barrier between unregulated landfilling and preservation of the Hackensack River’s ecosystem. DeKorte Park includes the Meadowlands Environment Center, an NJMC educational facility operated by Ramapo College of New Jersey, as well as 3.5 miles of trails sceneic overlooks, memorial sculptures and an art gallery. It is also home to our scientific arm, the Meadowlands Environmental Research Institue (MERI) located on the third floor of the NJMC administrative building and our newly opened center for Environmental and Scientific Education and William D. McDowell observatory.

| U.S. Army Recruiting
The U.S. Army Marketing and Engagement Brigade has a history that dates back to 1 October, 1997 when it was formed as the U.S. Army Recruiting Command Area Support Group (Provisional). A year later, the U. S. Army Recruiting Command Area Support Group (Provisional) was officially re-designated the U.S. Army Recruiting Command Area Support Group.
The mission was to provide a single headquarters for the intermediate command and control of small units providing logistical, operational, and production support to recruiting. On July 1, 1999, the U.S. Army Recruiting Command Area Support Group was officially re-designated as the U.S. Army Recruiting Support Brigade.
On Oct. 1, 2002, the U.S. Army Recruiting Support Brigade was re-designated as the U.S. Army Accessions Support Brigade This re-designation came as a part of the overall standup of the U.S. Army Accessions Command, headquartered in Fort Monroe, Virginia.
In 2012, the U.S. Army Accession Support Brigade was realigned as a direct reporting unit to the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Manpower and Reserve Affairs operationally aligned under the Army Marketing and Research Group at Crystal City, Virginia.
Additionally, in January 2017, the Secretary of the Army officially designated the U.S. Army Accessions Support Brigade as the U.S. Army Marketing and Engagement Brigade.
This change marked the brigade’s official departure from the legacy name U.S. Army Accessions Support Brigade and its previous alignment under Army Accessions Command, which was deactivated in 2012.
As of 18th December, 2018, the MEB has been assigned to the United States Army Recruiting Command.
The brigade structure includes the U.S. Army Mission Support Battalion, based in Fort Knox, Kentucky, with the brigade headquarters, the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit in Fort Benning, Georgia, and the U.S. Army Parachute Team in Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
More than a decade later, the Marketing and Engagement Brigade influences the American people to join the Army by enhancing and conducting recruiting operations through direct engagements and demonstrating elite Army skills and exhibits, in order to achieve the Army’s recruiting mission.
On order, they provide unique support to the operational and generating force. No unit in the Army shoots more, drives more miles, or jumps more than the U.S. Army Marketing and Engagement Brigade.
The U.S. Army Mission Support Battalion employs the latest technology to produce exhibits that travel to towns and events across each state to share the Army experience. These Soldiers log more than 750,000 miles each year helping “Connect America’s People with America’s Army.”
The U.S. Army Parachute Team, the Golden Knights is the Army’s premiere demonstration group and performs at competitions and airshows worldwide. The team also conducts tandems, providing a unique Army experience for influencers across the country.
U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit Soldiers compete nationally and internationally as well as on the Olympic stage. Members of the Army Marksmanship Unit develop training, and test weapons and ammunition to support Soldiers worldwide.

Teterboro is the oldest operating airport in the Port District. Walter C. Teter acquired the property in 1917. During World War 1, North American Aviation operated a manufacturing plant on the site. After the war, the airport served as a base of operations for Anthony Fokker, the Dutch aircraft designer. The first flight from the present airport site was made in 1919.
