NJDEP, Site Remediation Hazardous Waste Program, Bureau of Information Systems, GIS UnitThis GIS layer is based on a SQL query of the groundwater HAZSITE data that resides in COMPASS for each active Site Remediation case. Once the raw groundwater HAZSITE data is extracted from COMPASS, it is summarized such that a maximum concentration for the contaminant is derived for the year preceeding the last sampling event (samp_last_max_conc) and a maximum concentration is also generated for all sampling events (all_max_conc) . Each active Site Remediation case is included in the GIS layer. The GIS layer symbology is based on the the maximum concentration for the year preceeding the last sampling event for that contaminant as summarized in the evaluation field and further categorized in the s_value field. Symbology is represented as follows: no data submitted, not sampled, non-detect (ND), detected below standard, reporting limit > standard, 1 - 10 times the standard, 10 - 100 times the standard, 100 - 1000 times the standard and greater than 1000 times the standard. The standard is the NJDEP Ground Water Quality Standard and/or MCL for this contaminant. For the HAZSITE data, there are a number of considerations that need to be taken into account when using this GIS layer for decision making purposes:- Not all SRP cases have provided HAZSITE data to the Department or HAZSITE data that has been provided to the Department may be incomplete;- Additional sampling may have been conducted since the last round of HAZSITE data was submitted that has not yet been provided as HAZSITE data is only required with key document submittals;- HAZSITE data that was submitted may not have been provided in the correct format and therefore could not be uploaded into the COMPASS data repository and would therefore not be returned via the COMPASS SQL query.ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/be1ea6bdb74b46ccbfbf5c48f3006db1_91engNew Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's (NJDEP) Bureau of GISPublicSRP PFOA COMPASS GW Site Summary in New Jersey [New Jersey]Web servicesNew JerseyLast Modified: 2025-11-24
