CURRENT WATER-RESOURCES PROJECTS IN NEW JERSEY

The Geological Survey is currently involved in a number of hydrologic investigations in the State of New Jersey. The following is a list of these investigations. Results are published at the conclusion of short-term projects or periodically in the case of long-term projects. Hydrologic data from these projects are entered into the NWIS data base.
