Watershed Management in New Jersey Upper Navesink Water Qualtiy Meeting Robert A. Mancini, Section Chief Division of Watershed Management Bureau of Watershed Planning Department of Environmental Protection September 21, 2005

New Jersey’s Watershed Management Areas

What is the purpose of watershed management? Holistic Approach to: –Water quality –Water quantity –Ecosystem health Develop Partnerships Continuously Improve Provide Coordination of NJDEP Activities

Comprehensive Strategy for Addressing Water Quality Impairments Total Maximum Daily Loads NJPDES Phase II (NJAC 7:14) Stormwater Management (NJAC 7:8) C – 1 Surface Water Classifications Watershed Restoration & Protection Plans Regional Stormwater Management Plans Implementation Projects w/Partnerships

Comprehensive Strategy for Addressing Water Quality Impairments Total Maximum Daily Loads Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Watershed Plan / Segments NJPDES Phase II Stormwater Management

Category One Waters (HUC14s)

Watershed Plans/Restoration Plans/Priority Stream Segment Plans/RSWMP Determine Root Cause for environmental problems Identify restoration/implementation projects actions: Responsible parties Funding sources - CBT, 319(h), Infrastructure Trust, USEPA Grants, NRCS, NY/NJ Harbor Estuary Program, NJCVA Program, Wetlands Mitigation Council, NOAA, etc. Timelines for implementation Track Progress on achieving water quality standard

Watershed Protection/Restoration/Priority Stream Segment and RSWMP Plans Working with PAC’s/TAC’s partnerships, developed basic criteria to prioritize waterbodies and stream segments of interest Some of the criteria include: Headwater areas Proximity to drinking water supply Proximity to recreational/exceptional valued areas (Shellfish Harvesting, primary contact etc.) Possibility of Adverse Human Health Conditions Number of use impairments Possibility to evaluate several impairments Measurable change Probability of human source Availability of Partnerships High Anticipated Success Level

WMA12 Watershed Protection/Restoration Plans/RSWMP (continued) WMA 12 Waterbodies and stream segments of interest: Shark River near Neptune (TMDL and Priority Stream Segment) Shrewsbury (C-1) Wreck Pond Watershed (RSWMP) Ramanessin Brook Watershed (RSWMP) Deal Lake Watershed (TMDL and RSWMP) Manasquan River (C-1 and various WQ Impairments) Navesink/Swimming River (Shellfish Waters and RSWMP) DEVELOP PLANS THAT IDENTIFY IMPLEMENTATION PROJECTS AND STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS THE WQ IMPAIRMENTS
