The Long Beach Township Water Rescue Unit was implemented in 2014 as a joint venture between the Police Department and Beach Patrol. Both entities shared experiences and knowledge to develop an initial program to meet the needs of the community. With the acquisition of military surplus Humvees, the Police Department was able to develop a quick response vehicle able to deploy the Rescue Water Craft with limited restrictions to either the bay or ocean. The unit is consistently trained by Sgt. Paul Vereb in the most up-to-date tactics utilizing PWC.
