January 1, 1980

Sediment data from 76 stream-gaging sites throughout New Jersey indicate that suspended sediment yields in New Jersey streams range from less than 10 tons per square mile per year to about 700 tons per square mile per year. Sixty to 100 percent of the material transported as suspended sediment is finer than 0.062. (USGS)
