Description:
Abstract:
A map of areas defined as Review Zones, that are subject to review and approval by the Delaware and Raritan (D&R) Canal Commission as defined in its "Regulations for the Review Zone of the D&R Canal State Park", adopted August 2004 (N.J.A.C. 7:45). The Commission reviews development projects within its review zone for their impact on the following: 1.) storm drainage and water quality, 2.) stream corridors, 3.) visual and natural quality including historic impact, and 4.) traffic. The "A" Review Zone is the area within 1,000 feet on either side of the center-line of the canal except in Princeton Township where the west bank of Carnegie Lake shall be the boundary of Zone A and where the Raritan River is within 1,000 feet, its furthest bank being the boundary. The "B" Review Zone is based upon sub-watersheds in central New Jersey that impact the D&R Canal State Park.
Purpose:
To provide a map showing the Commission's geographical jurisdiction to potential applicants.

Confirmation of canal banks and digitization of missing boundaries and canal areas.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Zone A Process: Selected current canal centerline and banks from 2002 hydrography [ABRV] update including section in south eastern Mercer County. Merged separate parts into one canal polygon and centerline. Confirmed banks and centerline using 2002 aerial photos. Created extended centerline segments by connecting separated centerline segments along feeder canal and main canal. Gap under Trenton Freeway (US Rt. 1) remains and southern Mercer section not connected to the rest of the canal centerline segments. One thousand (1,000) foot buffer created for all segments using centerline. This buffer was then edited in ArcMap to reflect zone boundary exceptions/limits: far shore of Carnegie Lake, far shore of Raritan River, near shore of Delaware River, northern end at Landing Lane and Bridge in New Brunswick, NJ.
Process_Date: 200603
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Zone B Process: Selected WMAs through which the canal passes. Selected HUC14s falling within these WMAs. Eliminated HUC14s or parts which were deemed not to be part of zone B by overlay with and visual comparison to current, hand-drawn zone B delineations. Edited remaining HUC14s in following exception areas: HUC14 basins or parts north of Raritan River and, Trenton, Hamilton Twp. east of zone A not included in zone B. Interior HUC14 boundaries dissolved to created one zone B area.
Process_Date: 200603
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Combined Zones Process: Joined Zone coverages/shapefiles to create single review zone shapefile. Eliminated interior zone B arcs from zone A polygon. Edited/deleted slivers along where zones overlapped and edges should coincide. Created area, perimeter, zone and acres attributes and eliminated all extraneous attributes. Calculated area, perimeter, and acres attribute values.
Process_Date: 200603
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Removed Review Zone polygons that intersected Manalapan Township.
