N.J. Admin. Code § 7:7-9.12

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 7:7-9.12 - Submerged infrastructure routes

(a) A submerged infrastructure route is the corridor in which a pipe or cable runs on or below a submerged land surface.

(b) Any activity which would increase the likelihood of infrastructure damage or breakage, or interfere with maintenance operations is prohibited.

(c) Rationale: Submerged infrastructure routes are a large capital investment and much depends on the safe functioning of the infrastructure. Both human and natural systems suffer from accidental breakage, especially of large oil or gas pipelines. Activities that increase hazard for submerged infrastructure must, therefore, be excluded.
