The Dennis Township Environmental Commission DTEC represents the public and its long-term interests as local environmental advocates. Commission Members work towards these goals by: advising the township council and the planning and zoning boards about environmental impacts of proposals for development; advocating for open-space preservation; keeping residents informed on environmental matters and ways to help protect the environment; promoting environmental education; and working with neighboring commissions and other organizations to meet these goals. The ANJEC website has a good explanation of the role of Environmental Commissions in New Jersey
