PCCD is excited to welcome Kerry Engelhardt, our new District Engineer, to the team!

Kerry grew up in Bergen County, New Jersey and attended Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ where she obtained a B.S. in Civil and Environmental Engineering.

Kerry worked as a land development engineer and professional planner in South Jersey for fifteen years before relocating to Lackawaxen, PA in 2015. She is a licensed professional engineer in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania. She specialized in stormwater design and environmental permitting and served as planning board engineer in municipalities throughout Salem and Gloucester Counties.

Most recently she worked as the Resources and Land Use Specialist at the Upper Delaware Council where she reviewed local plans and ordinances to ensure substantial conformance with the River Management Plan of the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River. In that role she was also involved with the Upper Delaware BioBlitz and served as a day planner for the Delaware River Sojourn from 2022 to 2026.

Kerry and her husband Chris enjoy fishing, swimming, and birding at the Lackawaxen River behind their home. She is a member of the Eagle Conservation Committee and the Land Protection Committee at the Delaware Highlands Conservancy and has been volunteering with the DHC’s Eagle Watch since 2016. Kerry likes to spend her free time reading, beekeeping, hiking, cross stitching, disc golfing, and seeing live music.

Welcome aboard Kerry!
