Water Quality Management Plans Water Quality Management Plans

The health of our state's water resources is essential to our quality of life in New Jersey. Whether swimming in a lake, casting a fishing line into a meandering brook, or drinking a glass of crystal clear water; our environment provides us the basic necessities of life, which can not be taken for granted.

To manage our valuable water resources, the Division of Watershed Management administers a variety of programs aimed at protecting and restoring water quality, controlling water pollution and ensuring adequate water supplies.

By managing watersheds, the division can holistically address water pollution and supply issues so that more comprehensive strategies can be implemented.
