SPRING LAKE, N.J. (AP) — Federal officials have approved a $2.5-million federal study for Wreck Pond to address environmental issues, including drainage problems that have caused chronic flooding in Monmouth County.

The Asbury Park Press (http://on.app.com/1bl0KTj) reports the Army Corps of Engineers study will seek the best ways to combat hazards associated with drainage problems at the pond. It will likely take two to three years to complete.
