has reached unacceptably high levels in recent years; 
Whereas deaths from motor vehicle collisions, poisonings from 
unintentional overdoses, and falls remain as the three 
leading causes of preventable death in the United States; 
Whereas the cost of unintentional injuries to people in the 
United States exceeds $684,400,000,000 each year and 
causes great suffering among individuals and their fami-
lies; 
Whereas the cost of unintentional injuries to workers and 
their employers is $175,300,000,000 each year, including 
the value of 114,000,000 days of lost productivity; 
Whereas preventing unintentional injury and death requires 
the cooperation of all levels of government, the Nation’s 
employers, and the general public; 
Whereas the National Safety Council, founded in 1913, was 
congressionally chartered in 1953 to lead this Nation in

Rivers System.

provide planning assistance to local political subdivisions of the
State of New Jersey through which flow river segments that are
