Which task force? TF1 / USAR?

NJTF-1

Yes it is NJTF-1.
In lot P which is by Paterson Plank Rd they have a large construction material pile and vehicles setup for an exercise.
I don't know about training for next super bowl because there is a big multi day event in less then two weeks on April 4 to 8 in the NJSEA complex with WrestleMania.

In order for them to get federal funds for the task force they are required to hold a mutli unit drill every year. This could be it. Also with all the task forces out there now it is in their best interest to have these large drills so everyone is on the same page if anything does happen.
