This EPA Region 2 Cooperative Agreement award provides $442,770 in funding to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to carry out ground-truthing and analysis of two wetland mapping methods in Bergen and Atlantic Counties, New Jersey. The goal is to determine if these novel methods could improve future land use/land cover (LULC) mapping efforts across the state. Key activities include developing a quality assurance project plan, conducting field data collection and analysis, preparing recommendations for refining LULC datasets and assessment methods, and creating an educational story map to support wetland conservation in overburdened communities. The anticipated outcomes include more accurate wetland maps, a comparative evaluation of remote sensing techniques for wetland delineation, and increased stakeholder accessibility to wetland information and resources. This award is funded through the EPA's Regional Wetland Program Development Grants (CFDA 66.461) program, which supports state, tribal, and local government efforts to build comprehensive wetland protection and management initiatives.
