Nicole Curnan
Legal intern
Nicole is a lifelong Toms River resident and recent graduate in International Relations from the University of Delaware, has always been passionate about making a difference. When she learned about Save Barnegat Bayâs fight against the DEPâs controversial settlement with BASF over the lifetime of harm caused by the Ciba-Geigy Superfund site, she didnât hesitate to get involved.
Over just three months, Nicole has dedicated nearly 100 hours of her time to meticulously reviewing thousands of pages of legal and technical documents related to the environmental damage caused by Ciba-Geigy. Her attention to detail and unwavering commitment to her home community have been indispensable in strengthening our fight for justice.
Thank you, Nicole, for everything you have done to support our mission and protect our Bay.
