Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024
(a) Special areas are areas that are so naturally valuable, important for human use, hazardous, sensitive to impact, or particular in their planning requirements, as to merit focused attention and special management rules. This subchapter divides special areas into four categories:
(b) All land or water areas, except certain special water's edge areas, are subject to either the general land area rules at N.J.A.C. 7:7-13 or the general water area rules at N.J.A.C. 7:7-12. In addition, certain land or water areas are subject to one or more special area rules. All special water's edge areas are subject to one or more special area rules. In some cases, a portion of a site is subject to both general area rules and special area rules. Where the applicable general area rules and special area rules conflict, the special area rules shall govern.
