Description:
Abstract:
This data represents the monitoring stations in coastal waters where sampling data was collected for dissolved oxygen for the 2004 Integrated Report. The sampling locations include the NJDEP Marine Water Monitoring Network and the EPA New Jersey Helicopter Coastal Monitoring. New Jersey's Bureau of Marine Water Monitoring monitors these locations a minimum of four times a year. EPA monitors during the swimming season only.
Purpose:
This data spatially represents the location of sampling stations whose data was used for assessments of aquatic life designated use in the 2004 Integrated Report.
Supplemental_Information:
2004 Integrated Report files retain the same basic content as the 2002 Integrated Report, with small changes in format. Some files were combined to consolidate information. For questions on metadata content, please contact Leigh Lager, NJDEP/BFBM 609-292-0427 or leigh.lager@dep.state.nj.us
