{ "currentVersion" : 12, "serviceItemId" : "09464a6a015949bcb27a035077ddce0c", "serviceDescription" : "The Department continues to explore further means to enhance public access, such as dedicated funding for a Blue Trails program to make shoreline improvements, and additional approaches that have proven successful in other states with coastal communities. The environmental health and public accessibility of the ocean, shore and tidal waterways are inextricably tied to New Jersey's economic health. Tourism, mostly tied to shore communities, is a $38 billion per year industry in New Jersey. Our proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and other tidal waterways is an enormous contributor to the quality of our life in our State. It is in everyone's best interest to preserve, protect, and make them available. The rules the Department plans to propose, which are part of a larger effort to promote and enhance access, would do just that. The New Jersey shore and riverfront communities are diverse, active places, where people come to enjoy being in close proximity to the water. This is clearly evidenced by the millions of tourists who come to the shore each year to walk the boardwalks, enjoy our piers, and eat and drink along our waterways. It is also evident among those who fish in our waters along bridges and pocket parks as well as from shores and among boaters of all types who navigate our waters for recreation and who depend on access to the water. The Department is committed to upholding our historical role in protecting and promoting the public's right of access to New Jersey's tidal waters. We seek to accomplish this significant public policy goal in a broad-based, effective, and comprehensive manner, and we recognize not only the vital role of regulations but also the gains that can be made by working cooperatively with our municipal leaders. We believe that providing practical information to the public is vital to enhancing opportunities to take advantage of New Jersey's extensive public access, and that additional means to provide access to the shore and to tidal waterways in New Jersey's urban areas must be part of a continuing process of improvement. For all of these reasons, the Department has proposed the following regulatory changes as part of a comprehensive effort to maintain and enhance public access to our tidal waters.", "hasVersionedData" : false, "supportsDisconnectedEditing" : false, "hasStaticData" : false, "hasSharedDomains" : false, "maxRecordCount" : 2000, "maxIdsCount" : 1000000, "supportedQueryFormats" : "JSON", "supportsVCSProjection" : false, "supportedExportFormats" : "csv,shapefile,sqlite,geoPackage,filegdb,featureCollection,geojson,kml,excel", "supportedConvertFileFormats" : "JSON,PBF", "supportedConvertContentFormats" : "LayerEditCollection", "supportedFullTextLocales" : [ "neutral", "ar-SA", "bg-BG", "bn-IN", "ca-ES", "cs-CZ", "da-DK", "de-DE", "el-GR", "en-GB", "en-US", "es-ES", "fr-FR", "gu-IN", "he-IL", "hi-IN", "hr-HR", "id-ID", "is-IS", "it-IT", "ja-JP", "kn-IN", "ko-KR", "lt-LT", "lv-LV", "ml-IN", "mr-IN", "ms-MY", "nb-NO", "nl-NL", "pa-IN", "pl-PL", "pt-BR", "pt-PT", "ro-RO", "ru-RU", "sk-SK", "sl-SI", "sr-Cyrl-CS", "sr-Latn-CS", "sv-SE", "ta-IN", "te-IN", "th-TH", "tr-TR", "uk-UA", "ur-PK", "vi-VN", "zh-CN", "zh-HK", "zh-MO", "zh-SG", "zh-TW" ], "supportsSharedTemplates" : true, "hasSharedTemplates" : true, "capabilities" : "Query", "description" : "\u003cDIV STYLE=\"text-align:Left;\"\u003e\u003cDIV\u003e\u003cP\u003e\u003cSPAN\u003eThe public's right to access tidal waters and their shorelines is a concept that existed prior to the inception of the State of New Jersey and continues to this day. Public access is a right expressed in the Public Trust Doctrine, in the many court cases that have interpreted and implemented its strictures, and implicitly in the many legislative acts and regulatory provisions that have sought to protect and enhance access. The Department of Environmental Protection has long seen protecting this right as a vital part of our mission, and we require public access to the shore and tidal waterways under the Coastal Zone Management rules. Staff works with municipal governments to develop voluntary Municipal Public Access Plans consistent with the Coastal Permit Program (N.J.A.C. 7:7) and Coastal Zone Management rules (N.J.A.C. 7:7E) in an effort develop Municipal Public Access Plans to enhance public access to tidal waters in a comprehensive manner. These plans consist of an inventory of existing public access amenities within a municipality, along with a needs assessment, and a list of planned enhancements or expansions of public access facilities in accordance with State criteria. This layer represents an inventory of potential public access points have been identified in MPAPs or have visual or other access to tidal waterbodies using best available data. As additional public access plans and inventories are developed this layer will be updated.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003c/div\u003e", "copyrightText" : "", "spatialReference" : { "wkid" : 102711, "latestWkid" : 3424 }, "initialExtent" : { "xmin" : -445924.03747367859, "ymin" : -55416172.917287894, "xmax" : 154629000.47588468, "ymax" : 75913819.8652916, "spatialReference" : { "wkid" : 102711, "latestWkid" : 3424 } }, "fullExtent" : { "xmin" : 197762.42883300781, "ymin" : 35434.345642089844, "xmax" : 655917.34442138672, "ymax" : 785707.30981445313, "spatialReference" : { "wkid" : 102711, "latestWkid" : 3424 } }, "allowGeometryUpdates" : true, "supportsTrueCurve" : true, "trueCurveSupportMode" : "OGC", "supportedCurveTypes" : [ "esriGeometryCircularArc" ], "supportedTrueCurvePbfFeatureEncodings" : [ "esriCompressedShapeBuffer", "esriDefault" ], "allowTrueCurvesUpdates" : true, "onlyAllowTrueCurveUpdatesByTrueCurveClients" : false, "units" : "esriFeet", "supportsAppend" : true, "supportedAppendCapabilities" : "Features,Attachments", "supportsSharedDomains" : true, "supportsWebHooks" : true, "supportsTemporalLayers" : true, "layerOverridesEnabled" : true, "size" : 3014656, "syncEnabled" : false, "supportsApplyEditsWithGlobalIds" : true, "supportsReturnDeleteResults" : true, "supportsLayerOverrides" : true, "supportsTilesAndBasicQueriesMode" : true, "supportsQueryContingentValues" : true, "supportedContingentValuesFormats" : "JSON, PBF", "supportsContingentValuesJson" : 2, "advancedEditingCapabilities" : { "supportsSplit" : false, "supportsReturnServiceEditsInSourceSR" : false, "supportsAsyncApplyEdits" : true, "supportsReturnEditResults" : true, "supportsApplyEditsbyUploadID" : true, "supportedApplyEditsUploadIDFormats" : "JSON,PBF" }, "editorTrackingInfo" : { "enableEditorTracking" : false, "enableOwnershipAccessControl" : false, "allowOthersToQuery" : true, "allowOthersToUpdate" : true, "allowOthersToDelete" : false, "allowAnonymousToQuery" : true, "allowAnonymousToUpdate" : true, "allowAnonymousToDelete" : true }, "xssPreventionInfo" : { "xssPreventionEnabled" : true, "xssPreventionRule" : "InputOnly", "xssInputRule" : "rejectInvalid" }, "layers" : [ { "id" : 249, "name" : "Envr_admin_PA", "parentLayerId" : -1, "defaultVisibility" : false, "subLayerIds" : null, "minScale" : 0, "maxScale" : 0, "type" : "Feature Layer", "geometryType" : "esriGeometryPoint" } ], "tables" : [] }
