All_TMDLS_for_New_Jersey (FeatureServer)

View In:   Map Viewer

Service Description: This map combines streamshed, lakeshed, shellfish, and pre-2008 TMDLs for New Jersey. TMDLs are required, under Section 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act, to be developed for waterbodies that cannot meet surface water quality standards after the implementation of technology-based effluent limitations. Once adopted in the NJ Register they are official added as amendments to the DEP's Water Quality Management Plan. TMDLs are mechanisms for identifying all the contributors to surface water quality impacts and setting goals for load reduction for pollutants of concern as necessary to meet SWQS.

Description:

The pollutant of concern for these shellfish TMDLs is total coliform. Nonpoint and stormwater point sources are the primary sources of total coliform/fecal coliform loads in these waterbodies. Source loads were estimated for land uses in each watershed and for local marinas that may be causing water quality impacts in these waterbodies. TMDLs were developed based on an analysis of the existing pathogen indicator data compared to NSSP and NJDEP pathogen indicator criteria, and the loading capacity has been allocated among the point and nonpoint sources. The TMDL reports include implementation strategies that will bring the subject waterbodies into compliance with the NSSP criteria for unrestricted shellfish harvest.
