INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this document is to provide users with a guide to the waterfront public access opportunities in the Barnegat Bay watershed. The j Barnegat Bay, located in Ocean County, New Jersey, is a 75 square mile ecosystem. This environmentally sensitive estuary is replete with aquatic vegetation, shellfish beds, finfish habitats, waterfowl nesting grounds, and spectacular vistas. Much of the water in the Barnegat Bay drains from a watershed area of approximately 450 miles, encompassing most ofOcean County. The headwaters of the streams feeding the Bay are located in the Pine Barrens. Pristine water flows through predominantly forested areas as it follows the gentle slope of the coastal plain. As the flow moves eastward and the waterways increase in size, so too does the population inhabiting the adjacent land areas, whiC;h become primarily residential in nature. The watershed supports nearly 435,000 people year 'round, a population which more than doubles during the summer season.

The Bay provides a shallow estuarine ecosystem which supports a riCh mix of species. For instance, it is a year-round nursery for winter flounder, nesting grounds for the endangered least tern, a critical overwintering site for large numbers of American black ducks and Atlantic brant, as well as a feeding site for populations of otters. In addition, it is home to the economically important blue crab and hard clam which support commercial fishermen, as well as providing varied species for the recreational angler. The Bay also supplies 1,739 cubic meters per minute ofcooling water for a nuclear generating station, while providing recreational opportunities for boaters, bird watchers and swimmers.

Within this context, it is important that the many residents and visitors be 'able to enjoy access to the rich water-based resources of the watershed. By using this guide you will be able to determine the location of beaches, docks, .piers, parks, etc., and the amenities they offer such as telephones, restrooms and boat rental, to name a few. It is recommended that this guide be used along with a municipal or county map. Please note that it has been necessary for us to include maps of differing scales in the guide. You will find a key map on page 2.

You may find that this guide is not comprehensive, as it reflects the input of numerous agencies and the constraints within which they operate. In addition, . access sites that may be traditional, but use of which might actually constitute trespass, have not been included. Locations that are only accessible to municipal residents have not been included in order to best serve the general public. Ocean front sites have not been included, as they are not considered to be within the Barnegat Bay watershed.

We wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to all who contributed time and energy to this effort. We welcome any comments readers have on this guide and encourage you to call Theresa Fowler at (609) 633-1205 to share information. We especially encourage you to enjoy the plethora of waterfront public access opportunities in the Barnegat Bay watershed while being mindful of the sensitive balance of the ecosystem.
