    NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION GREEN ACRES PROGRAM JUNE 2005 PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS Funding Round 2006A Grants and Loans to Local Governments and Nonprofit Organizations for Open Space Acquisition and Park Development Recommended for Funding to the Garden State Preservation Trust Richard J. Codey Bradley M. Campbell Acting Governor Commissioner 1 The Green Acres Mission To achieve, in partnership with others, a system of interconnected open spaces, whose protection will preserve and enhance New Jersey's natural environment and its historic, scenic, and recreational resources for public use and enjoyment. General Overview The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Green Acres Program was created in 1961 to meet New Jersey's growing recreation and conservation needs. Together with public and private partners, Green Acres has protected more than 568,000 acres of open space and provided hundreds of outdoor recreational facilities in communities around the State. The total acres of protected open space and farmland across the State has exceeded 1.2 million acres. The protection of New Jersey’s environmentally sensitive open space, vital water resources, and significant natural and historic resources is critical to the quality of life enjoyed by all New Jerseyans. Preserved open space protects our water supply, protects sensitive habitats for endangered and threatened species, promotes smart growth, and provides a place for public recreation and connection with community and nature. Quality open space and attractive recreational facilities in cities, suburbs, and other developed communities throughout New Jersey help to improve the quality of life for residents and visitors and help to create an environment where people want to live and work.

  • Purpose & Scope of the Trails Plan Update
    Purpose & Scope 1. of the Trails Plan Update New Jersey Trails Plan Purpose This update of the New Jersey Trails Plan presents a renewed vision, goals and strategic actions to help guide and coordinate the efforts of all those who plan, build, operate and maintain New Jersey’s trails. The Plan reaffirms the importance of providing trails for all and emphasizes the value of trails in sup- porting a wide range of benefits. The Trails Plan is ultimately intended to benefit New Jersey citizens and visitors of all ages and abilities, for whom trails can provide access to nature and to community destina- tions, serving both recreation and transportation needs. The Trails Plan is intended to inspire those who care about trails and see their value to New Jersey. The Plan is also intended as a guide to those who must make decisions regarding the funding and development of trails, from the state to the local level. To realize New Jersey’s Trail Vision as an on-the-ground reality will require the commitment of all levels of government to adequately fund trails development, operation and mainte- nance, and the commitment of all trail advocates and providers to cooperate and work collaboratively to expand and improve trails. The New Jersey Trails Plan serves as a common ground for all to achieve these two conditions for success – funding and cooperation. Chapter 1: Purpose & Scope of the Trails Plan Update 1 In addition to legislators and elected officials, there are two state Departments primarily responsible for funding, policy and program decisions affecting trails, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) and the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT).

  • A System of Open Space Preservation for Sussex County
    A System of Open Space Preservation for Sussex County Photo by Sandy Urgo Appalachian Trail in Wantage “Conservation means harmony between people and land. When land does well for its owner, and the owner does well by his land; when both end up better, by reason of their partnerships, we have conservation.” Aldo Leopold, Round River Preserved open space is a vital county resource whose function, location and design need to be planned as carefully as drinking water delivery, road systems, and sewer service. To achieve the goals identified by Sussex County leaders and residents through the open space planning process, land conservation needs to proceed systematically. This section offers recommendations how Sussex County can use open space preservation as a system to accomplish community and county goals. These goals include • Maintaining water quality and quantity • Protecting plant and wildlife habitat • Meeting community recreation needs • Linking trails and creating greenways • Preserving vistas and community character • Enhancing historic and cultural resources • Promoting tourism A system of open space preservation will help achieve the above goals, which are described further in the pages following. Each description will include information on: • special resources within Sussex County; • the importance of this system to Sussex County as obtained through the outreach activities of the planning process and special places identified in the outreach meetings; VII. A System of Open Space Preservation 105 • map of the areas of interest for preservation obtained through the outreach meetings; • issues that describe the challenges faced in achieving this system; and • recommendations to further develop the system. Through the public meetings held as part of the open space planning process, participants identified special areas to be considered for preservation.
