Layer: Undeveloped Dredged Lagoons (ID: 16)

Name: Undeveloped Dredged Lagoons

Display Field: NAME

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: Dredged lagoons or borrow pits are sub-aqueous areas from where sediment was mined and used to raise the elevation of adjacent land. In some cases the uplands adjacent to these borrow areas were never developed. These types of areas could potentially be reclaimed and restored to saltmarsh habitat through placement of dredged material. This data layer was identified and extracted from the NJDEP 2012 LU/LC vector data set by selecting features labeled as ‘5420’ in the ‘LU12’ attribute field. Once extracted a buffer analysis was conducted to determine if the dredged lagoon polygons were adjacent to or fronting developed urban areas. Areas that fell within this buffer were visually inspected and if identified, were removed from the data layer. Also, upon visual inspection dredged lagoons that appeared to be used as navigational waterways to personal docks were removed. In addition, in certain situations if a section of a dredged lagoon feature was near developed land and a section was not, it was split using Esri’s ArcMap Spatial Analysis split feature tool.
