- Comments
- Water Quality Inventory Reports are provided by states and several interstate agencies every two years, beginning in 1975, under Section 305(b) of the Federal Clean Water Act. This is the 14th New Jersey Water Quality Inventory Report. Within New Jersey, the water quality results contained in these reports are used by water program managers to inform decisions regarding program direction and strategies. The US Environmental Protection Agency compiles reports from state and interstate agencies to prepare the National Water Quality Inventory Report to Congress, also published every two years. This national report is used by Congress to inform national program direction and funding priorities. The information contained in the Water Quality Inventory Reports is also useful at the local level to inform citizens about the status and trends of the State's waters, progress toward water resources goals and remaining concerns.
