Waterbody 2020 in New Jersey

The data set will provide Waterbody information for regulators, planners, and others interested in hydrography data. The use of the NHD data layers in hydrologic analyses will provide a means of monitoring "the health of the citizens and ecosystems of New Jersey" through the use of diverse applications. This data set is intended to serve as a resource for analysis rather than regulatory delineations. The NJDEP may change the line work based on more in depth analysis and field inspection for regulatory purposes. NJDEP/BGIS is a stewardship partner with USGS in the development of Local resolution data which is NHD compliant.
