- Abstract:
-
This dataset was developed to correspond to language in the codefied version of the NJ Highlands Water Protection and Planning Act (P.L. 2004, Chapter 120) and in support of the 2008 Regional Master Plan.
- Purpose:
-
The purpose of this dataset is to provide an accurate depiction of the Highlands Preservation and Planning Area Boundaries as defined by the act to use for planning purposes and for the implementation of the Highlands Regional Master Plan
- Supplemental_Information:
-
This dataset is an interpretation of the Highlands Preservation and Planning Area Boundary as described by the Highlands Water Protection and Planning Act of 2004. This dataset was created by utilizing the Highlands Parcel Base, the NJDEP Hydrography Layer for 2002 and the New Jersey Department of Transportation Local Road Files as references to the act description.

-
This is a polygon feature-based layer. Data were reviewed for correct topological structure.
- Completeness_Report:
-
The Preservation Area was drawn based on visual inspection of NJDEP 2007 orthophotography and NJ Composite of Parcels Data published 201005. There are segments in the Act language which were interpreted to capture the logical meaning of the boundary.
