Taking the Next Step
Taking the Next Step: Hopewell Township Municipal Assessment March 2002 Stony Brook- Millstone Watershed Association Executive Summary The Stony Brook-Millstone Watershed Association (the Association) realizes that the protection and health of a watershed relies a great deal on the land use laws and policies that govern development. In the past, we have had requests from various municipalities for assistance with drafting ordinances, improving zoning and increasing local environmental quality. In addition to continuing to respond to these requests, the Association wanted to provide a more comprehensive analysis for local municipalities. Thus, we developed the Municipal Assessment Project to assist municipalities in developing additional proactive measures to ensure that natural resources are preserved and the necessary regulatory structure established. Hopewell Township was the first municipality that accepted our offer of assistance and partnered with us on this project. When beginning the assessment, members of the Hopewell Township Committee, Planning Board, Environmental Commission and Master Plan Committee articulated their goals and vision for the Township by answering our Framework Questions. After evaluating these responses we reviewed Hopewell Township’s land use ordinances, policies, best management practices, and the recently drafted Master Plan using a newly designed 15-page protocol. We also interviewed key personnel to complete the assessment. The results of the assessment protocol were then compared to the goals and vision of the Township, as articulated by its leaders. Gaps between that vision and what was “on the books” - the local zoning and ordinances– were identified in the following twelve areas: 1. Preservation of riparian corridors 2. Protection of surface and ground water 3. -

Section 1: Introduction
SECTION 5.4.3: RISK ASSESSMENT – FLOOD 5.4.3 FLOOD This section provides a profile and vulnerability assessment for the flood hazard. HAZARD PROFILE This section provides profile information including description, location, extent, previous occurrences and losses and the probability of future occurrences. Description Floods are one of the most common natural hazards in the U.S. They can develop slowly over a period of days or develop quickly, with disastrous effects that can be local (impacting a neighborhood or community) or regional (affecting entire river basins, coastlines and multiple counties or states) (Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA], 2010). Most communities in the U.S. have experienced some kind of flooding, after spring rains, heavy thunderstorms, coastal storms, or winter snow thaws (George Washington University, 2001). Floods have been and continue to be the most frequent, destructive, and costly natural hazard in the State of New Jersey. The large majority of the State’s damage reported for major disasters is associated with flooding (NJOEM, 2011). There are a number of flood categories in the U.S., which include: Riverine flooding, including overflow from a river channel, flash, alluvial fan, ice-jam, and dam breaks Local drainage or high groundwater levels Fluctuating lake levels Coastal flooding, including storm surges Debris flow (NJOEM, 2011) One hundred-year floodplains (or 1% annual A floodplain is defined as the land adjoining the channel of a chance floodplain) can be described as a bag of river, stream, ocean, lake, or other watercourse or water body 100 marbles, with 99 clear marbles and one black that becomes inundated with water during a flood. -

Hopewell Township Municipal Wastewater Management Plan
Township of Hopewell (1106) Introduction This municipal chapter is an element of the Mercer County Wastewater Management Plan prepared by the Mercer County Planning Division in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:15. Hopewell Township is located in the northeastern portion of Mercer County and encompasses approximately 59 square miles. Although the Township contains pockets of suburban growth, it retains a rural-like atmosphere, with rolling, rural landscapes primarily in the north. Amidst the Township’s suburban and rural landscapes are located the two self-governing, established Boroughs of Pennington and Hopewell. Both suburban and rural lands are intersected by a network of streams that make their way to a larger system of rivers and streams that define two sides of the Township boundary. A little less than half of the stream corridors flow through preserved open space. Approximately 35 percent of the Township’s land is located in the agriculture development area and is eligible for farmland preservation programs. In addition, approximately 30 percent of the Township is comprised of public parks and preserved open space. These areas primarily include large regional parks, natural, and cultural areas. The remaining land within the Township consists mainly of residential housing, commercial uses, and corporate campuses. Residential housing is found throughout the Township with the densest housing found in the southern portion. Commercial and commercially-zoned land uses are primarily located along the Route 31 corridor. The Township zoning designations are shown on Map 4M. Aside from the Federal and state highways I-95, Route 29, and Route 31, the township roadways are primarily comprised of county and local roads. -

Discontinued Low-Flow Stations ...Xv
WATER RESOURCES DATA—NEW JERSEY, 2005 xv DISCONTINUED LOW-FLOW STATIONS The following low-flow partial-record stations in New Jersey have been discontinued. Streamflow measurements were made during periods of base-flow and when correlated with the simultaneous discharge at nearby continuous- record sites, will give a picture of the low-flow potentiality of a stream. The period of record may also include measurements made under rainfall-runoff conditions for other study purposes.
