Description:
Abstract: This is a geographical representation of the 2017 Public Community Water Purveyor Service Areas GIS data layer. Water purveyors are regulated by the NJDEP Bureau of Safe Drinking Water, under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Public Community Water Purveyors are systems that pipe water for human consumption to at least 15 service connections used year-round, or one that regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Public purveyors can be government agencies, private companies, or quasi-government groups. The boundaries mapped are those of the actual water delivery or service area. Franchise areas are not depicted (areas with legal rights for future service once developed). Water sources (wells or surface water intakes) are often located outside the delivery area boundaries.
Purpose: New Jersey Public Community Water Supply Purveyor service areas boundaries were collected and digitized to enable long term water supply planning, and to aid in emergency management during drought.
Supplemental Information: The Public Community Water Supply Purveyor service area layer is considered complete, but in maintenance mode. As Purveyors submit water permit applications for expansion of service to the NJDEP, they are required submit a GIS layer of the new. As the submittal comes in, it is updated on an edit version. Also, each quarter, a business objects report is created from NJEMS and all purveyor closures or mergers are examined and updated. There are a few service areas that have not been updated due to a lack of information. As the information comes in through NJDEP Enforcement site visits, these service areas will be updated.

Data Quality Information:
Attribute Value Accuracy Information:
Attribute Accuracy Report: Database fields were attributed and checked twice. Both edits were conducted by a staff member who did not do the original encoding of the information.
Logical Consistency Report: Topology was created for the Public Community Water Supply Purveyor service area and then edited using the ArcGIS Topology toolbar which finds all topological gaps and overlaps. All issues have been resolved and the topology is complete.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report: This data set was created from multiple water purveyors. Water purveyor vector data submitted to the NJDEP met or exceeded the NJDEP's Digital Data Standards guideline

Process Step:
Process Description: 
The 2004 Safe Drinking Water Act regulations required water purveyors to submit their service areas in digital GIS format compatible with the NJDEP's GIS when applying for a Safe Drinking Water construction permit. These polgyons were QA/QC'd by Water Supply staff and appended/merged into this dataset.
