    In April 1996, Union County commissioned F. X. Browne, Inc. to perform a Phase I Diagnostic - Feasibility Study of Upper Echo Lake. The Diagnostic-Feasibility Study was conducted in two stages. The diagnostic portion of the study was conducted to determine current water quality conditions, identify existing problems, and determine the pollutant sources that are responsible for the observed problems. The feasibility aspect of the study evaluated a variety of lake and watershed management alternatives based on the results of the diagnostic study. The product of this study is a Diagnostic Feasibility Report that provides a recommended management plan for the restoration of Upper Echo Lake.Presented to: County of Union, Division of Parks and Recreation.

    No full text
    This study of Burnt Mill Pond was conducted under the New Jersey Clean Lakes Program. It classifies the pond as eutrophic and calls for a multi-faceted management plan involving watershed management and in-lake management to control pollutant sources and restore the recreational usage of Burnt Mill Pond. The primary objectives of this study are: to determine the trophic (ecological) state of Burnt Mill Pond; to identify the sources of nutrients entering Burnt Mill Pond; to evaluate potentially feasible control alternatives; to develop and recommend a lake and watershed management program that is cost-effective, environmentally sound, and acceptable to the public; and to develop preliminary design information for the recommended management program."Prepared for: The City of Vineland, New Jersey"This report is categorized as "FXB Project No. 1111-03" and lists its participants as: Dr. Frank X. Browne, P.E., Charles Riley, and Kevin Stutzman.Purpose: The purpose of this report is to determine the trophic (ecological) state of Burnt Mill Pond; to identify the sources of nutrients entering Burnt Mill Pond; to evaluate potentially feasible control alternatives; to develop and recommend a lake and watershed management program that is cost-effective, environmentally sound, and acceptable to the public; and to develop preliminary design information for the recommended management program.The source version contains Appendix G: Groundwater Contamination Isopleths and Appendix H: Effluent Discharge Requirements for Shieldalloy Metallurgical Corp. which were not scanned into the available NJEDL resource
