Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024
(a) Permit-by-rule 28 authorizes the filling of an abandoned raceway adjacent to a regulated water, provided the conditions at N.J.A.C. 7:13-6.7 are met and:
1. For the purposes of this permit-by-rule, a
raceway is a conveyance structure that was created to divert water from a channel
for the purpose of providing hydrology or hydraulic power before returning the water
to the channel;
2. The raceway is
blocked at one or both ends so that water from the channel is not able to flow
through the raceway under normal flow conditions;
3. The raceway does not supply hydrology to an
otherwise isolated freshwater wetlands complex; and
4. The raceway is filled up to, but not above, the
surrounding topography and the entire disturbed area is properly graded so as not to
interfere with overland drainage.
