Board of Public Utilities; New Jersey. Department of Environmental ProtectionIn 1999, New Jersey Future, a non-profit, non-partisan group published its report, "Living with the Future in Mind - Goals and Indicators for New Jersey's Quality of Life". The report was part of New Jersey Future's Sustainable State project. The report is a "report card" on the long-term trends that can enhance or reduce the quality of life in New Jersey. The 11 goals described in the 1999 report are the product of a four year dialog with citizens from all walks of life that helped to develop the 41 indicators outlined in the report. The indicators were selected to measure specific progress towards sustainability goals. This will allow for the establishment of meaningful targets or benchmarks for each indicator to assist in achieving the overall goal of sustainability. Among these indicators are energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, two topics that are central to the issues discussed in this Action Plan. In Executive Order 96 (Appendix A) issued on May 20, 1999, Governor Whitman directed all state agencies to pursue policies that support the sustainability goals outlined in the "Living with the Future in Mind" report. Executive Order 96 directs all state departments and agencies to exchange information and establish institutional mechanisms to encourage and facilitate achieving the sustainable State goal in the New Jersey Future report. Executive Order 96 requires each department/agency to report on progress towards the sustainable State goal. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Sustainability Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Action Plan is one tool the NJDEP will use to track the State's progress towards sustainability. NJDEP, through its Strategic Plan and National Environmental Performance Partnership System (NEPPS) process, will develop specific GHG indicators that track the progress of the strategies in this Action Plan.Item State of New Jersey dam safety manual/ State of New Jersey, Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Water Resoirces [and] State of New Jersey, Division of State Police, Office of Emergency Management(Trenton, N.J.: Division of State Police, 1986) New Jersey.

Department of Environmental ProtectionNew Jersey is the most densely populated state in the United States and is expected to be the first state to reach build-out – where all land is either protected or developed. Wetlands are an important feature in New Jersey, covering 17% of the state and providing a plethora of ecosystem services to plant, animal, and human residents. The state has taken a multi-faceted, comprehensive, approach to managing and protecting freshwater and coastal wetlands. This five-year Wetland Program Plan is an update of the second New Jersey Wetland Program Plan. It provides a framework for the State of New Jersey to strengthen the core elements of its wetland program and to continue to reach the goals listed herein. The steps outlined will serve to direct current and future wetland protection and management efforts along a coordinated path to the benefit of New Jersey’s wetland resources and the quality of life for future generations.Item Sewers Invincible: A historic context for Camden's sewer infrastructure(Trenton, N.J. : Department of Environmental Protection, 2021) Khandal, Anu; Shikrallah, Elizabeth; Servetnick, Christina; Madrigal, T.

Department of Environmental Protection; Bonventre, Josephine A.; Lester, Lori A.Since the middle of the twentieth century, the changes in weather patterns in combination with global population growth have led to an increase in human exposure to more severe heat waves, forest fires, severe storms, droughts, and infectious disease vectors, with dire consequences to human health and communities. From a greater incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory dysfunction associated with extreme weather, to population displacement caused by rising sea-levels and increased flooding events, to the often-overlooked mental health toll that climate change has on individuals and communities, the vulnerability of the human population to climate change is tangible. The following sections describe how the impacts of climate change described in the 2020 New Jersey Scientific Report on Climate Change may affect the human health and communities of New Jersey residents.Item PCBs in Fish: A Comprehensive Survey(Trenton, N.J. : Department of Environmental Protection, 1982-11) New Jersey.
