  • Mid-Atlantic Coastal and Ocean Recreation Study
    New Jersey MID-ATLANTIC COASTAL AND OCEAN RECREATION STUDY The Surfrider Foundation, in partnership with Point 97, The Nature Conservancy, and Monmouth University’s Urban Coast Institute, (the Team), and in collaboration with the Mid-Atlantic Regional Council on the Ocean (MARCO), conducted a Coastal and Ocean Recreation Study (Study) for the Mid-Atlantic region in 2013-2014. The Study engaged recreational users and the public in providing data on “non-consumptive” recreational use, including surfing, diving, kayaking, beach going, and wildlife viewing. This data was previously unavailable and fills a key gap in our understanding of coastal and ocean uses in New Jersey and the Mid-Atlantic. METHODS The Team used a web-based survey accessible by mobile phones, tablets, or desktop/laptop computers to collect data from respondents on recreational use patterns, trip expenditures, and demographics. To obtain this data, the survey included a series of questions and an easy-to-use interactive mapping tool, where respondents could mark the places they went to recreate over the last year. The Team then analyzed the resulting spatial data to develop maps indicating intensity of use for recreational activities in the region (see map insert). To promote participation in the Study, the Team conducted outreach to over 300 recreational groups and businesses throughout the Mid- Atlantic region. In total, Mid-Atlantic respondents completed nearly 1,500 surveys resulting in over 22,000 unique data points. NEW JERSEY: STUDY FINDINGS Coastal and ocean recreation encompasses a popular and diverse group of activities in New Jersey (see graphic below) resulting in major economic and social benefits to coastal communities.

The primary causes of these accidents include high winds, wind gusts, equipment failure, and operator error. The bill establishes minimum liability insurance requirements for owners or operators of commercial parasailing, requires each operator to use all available means to determine and record the weather conditions before embarking, and forbids commercial parasailing during severe weather conditions. The bill also requires United States Coast Guard licensure for each operator of a commercial parasailing vessel. The bill provides for a criminal penalty for violations of the new commercial parasailing provisions. The bill defines “parasailing,” “kite boarding,” “kite surfing,” “moored ballooning,” and “sustained wind speed.” The bill provides operational limitations for parasailing, kite boarding, kite surfing, and moored ballooning near airports and prohibits operation of a moored balloon within 100 feet of the marked channel of the Florida Intracoastal Waterway. The bill may have a small fiscal impact on FWC, which should be absorbed by existing resources. The bill is not anticipated to have a fiscal impact on local government.
