Download or read book A Justification for Increasing New Jersey Pine Barrens Protection Efforts written by Jennifer Van Istendal and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1979, the state of New Jersey and the federal government aligned their efforts in order to protect and enrich the natural and cultural resources of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. With the passage of the National Parks and Recreation Act of 1978, the Pinelands National Reserve was established in combination with a governing body to manage it, namely the Pinelands Commission. Through its implementation of the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP), the New Jersey Pinelands Commission is responsible for protecting the Pinelands with respect to preserving the unique ecological integrity, while allowing harmonious development. This applied professional project aims to emphasis the uniquely rich qualities of the Pinelands, as well as reevaluate the governing legislation of the Pinelands, highlight its strengths and weaknesses, and identify opportunities to make amendments and further protect the Pinelands. This project critiques the current practices of the Pinelands Commission and the previous state government administration (2010-2018) and recommends significantly more enforcement of Pineland Commission regulations and modification of regulations as needed.

Book excerpt: In the course of its extraordinary history, the Jersey Devil has been exorcised, shot, electrocuted, declared officially dead, and scoffed as foolishness--none of which has had any effect on it or the people who persist in seeing it!This mysterious creature is said to prowl the lonely sand trails and mist-shrouded marshes of the Pine Barrens, and emerge perioducally to rampage through the towns and cities of New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania, leaving many communities in near-hysteria.The authors show that while a few appearances have been out-right fraud and others have likely been the result of mass hysteria, this creature has been seen by enough sane, sober, and responsible citizens to keep the possiblity of its existence alive and tantalizing.Over 50,000 in print

Download or read book Contested Lands written by Robert J. Mason and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation's first and only "national reserve," the Pinelands of New Jersey is located in the middle of the densely populated urban corridor between New York City and Philadelphia. Possessing vast quantities of pure groundwater, distinct flora and fauna, and a fascinating history of human occupancy and resource exploitation, the Pine Barrens is managed by a 15-member commission appointed at the federal, state, and local level. In his discussion of the implementation of the Pinelands Commission's regional plan, Robert Mason explores the changing politics of place and the associated conflicts of interest that have emerged. The Pinelands program is widely viewed as a land-use and regional planning experiment of national significance. While the commission is sustained by legislative and gubernatorial support and an absence of well-organized public opposition, it still has had to accommodate community and rural entrepreneurial interests. In order to convey some sense of the social, political, and economic texture of the Pinelands, Mason examines three communities--Woodland Township, Hamilton Township, and Manchester Township. The Pinelands experience offers a unique model for the management of valued places across the nation and provides valuable lessons about the human problems that confront ecologically-driven planning schemes with human settlement patterns, political subdivisions, and economic systems. Author note: Robert J. Mason is Assistant Professor of Geography and Urban Studies at Temple University.
