A graduate of Gloucester City High School, Class of ’85, John was a a good softball player and played for several men teams in the area when he was younger.
\”Good byes are never easy,\” said his friend Richard Dolson. \” Especially when your friend is 48. John inspired me 15 years ago to take coaching softball to another level. To leave a player with more knowledge of the game then we found them with. We , together with Ziggy and too many others to name, built a local softball empire. It was his vision. He gave his all. His on field antics were remembered by all. From his running flying splits to motivating the girls by eating a caterpillar! My favorite was his loud, did I say LOUD, motivational chants. My favorite was \”Do we want tuna fish or do we want lobster!\’ The kids loved him, the umpires loved him! He was so full of life when he had orange dirt under his shoes. So many kids got their start in softball playing for John Dobleman.\”
Mr. Dobleman is survived by his children, Samantha, Joshua and Ashlynn Dobleman; grandchildren, Mason and Chase; his siblings, William (Mary Ann), Charles \”Ziggy\” (Kathy), Linda Zearfoss, Daniel (Bonnie) Dobleman; goddaughter, Jenna and many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by his parents, John and Elizabeth Dobleman and his brother, James.

Judge Hogan has ruled against the environmental groups’ motion to intervene in the Exxon settlement case. We filed a motion to intervene for the purpose of appealing the Judge’s decision in in the settlement. We want to show that this settlement is wrong and Exxon should be responsible for the environmental damages impacted. We also believe we have right to intervene under the Environmental Rights Act and Judge Hogan should not have denied us that right. We are going to appeal this settlement and the Judge’s decision, as well as his denying our ability to intervene. The environmental groups who filed a motion to intervene in the case released the following statements:

The MCUA\’s Sayreville and Edison pump stations were inundated by Superstorm Sandy\’s record storm surge in October 2012, causing significant system failures and discharges of untreated wastewater into the Raritan River and Raritan Bay. To mitigate the risk of this from happening in a future severe storm, the pump stations and related MCUA infrastructure will be undergoing a series of significant upgrades and protective measures using a combination of federal funding and financing from the state.

RESULTS TO BE RELEASED IN MAY 2016

GLOUCESTER CITY NJ—Every day hundreds and hundreds of cars drive by the empty lot at 560 S. Broadway near the border of Gloucester City and Brooklawn. The property, which housed Woodland Oxygen many years ago, has been vacant for decades. The fence that surrounds the approximate three acres has fallen down in several places and there is debris and weeds scattered about the grounds. A sign hanging on a chain in between two broken fence posts reads, \”Keep Out.\”
Another sign wired on the fence reads in part: Environmental investigation/cleanup in progress at this site. Praxis, Inc, Gloucester City, NJ. For further information contact: Bill Schnitzerling, CB&I 609-588-6412 (posted on : February 25, 2013). See CB&I website
We reached out to the contact person and asked the following questions.
The status of your investigation?
Schnitzerling: CB&I is currently conducting an environmental investigation of soil and groundwater at the site.
What was found?
Schnitzerling : The soil investigation has revealed the limited presence of metals (Arsenic, Lead and Antimony), as well as the certain Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) above the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection ( NJDEP) Residential Direct Contact Soil Remediation Standards (NJRDCSRS) in soils, including: Benzo(a)anthracene, Benzo(a)pyrene, Benzo(b)fluroanthene, Dibenzo(a,h)anthracene, and Indo(1,2,3-cd)Pyrene). In addition, pH was detected outside typical ranges mapped by NJDEP for soil in southern New Jersey. The presence of pH has been attributed to lime generated by the former industrial processes conducted at this site.

(New York, N.Y. – October 8, 2015) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has modified its plan to address contaminated groundwater at the Shieldalloy Metallurgical Corp. site in Newfield and Vineland, N.J. A plan originally put into place in 1996 by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection when it was mainly responsible for the site, required a system that pumps the groundwater out of the ground and treats it. The modified EPA plan instead calls for using non-hazardous additives to treat the groundwater and break down the contaminants and then allow the contaminants to naturally decline while monitoring them.
