Storm water runoff is a major source of contaminated water entering the river. This water is contaminated with fecal bacteria, floatable trash, oil and other fluids from cars, lawn chemicals, soaps, silt and anything else that comes in contact with the rain.
The Shark River Watershed encompasses 23 square miles.
We have accumulated the storm water drainage maps of all of the towns surrounding the river and its tributaries. We have now compiled them all onto one map to better understand the effects of storm water and how to treat it or divert it to create less of an impact on the river.
You may browse through close-ups of abbreviated maps by clicking on the map links below to get a better understanding of the watershed. The map list starts at the headwaters (beginning) and travels towards the Atlantic Ocean.
