HUC 14 definition

HUC 14 or "hydrologic unit code 14" means an area within which water drains to a particular receiving surface water body, also known as a subwatershed, which is identified by a 14-digit hydrologic unit boundary designation, delineated within New Jersey by the United States Geological Survey.

Examples of HUC 14 in a sentence

• Furthermore, the New Jersey Stormwater Management Rules establish a 300-foot special water resource protection area (SWRPA) around Category One (C1) waterbodies and their intermittent and perennial tributaries, within the HUC 14 subwatershed.

• Surface water delineations will be based on USGS’s hydrologic unit code HUC 14.

• Special Water Resource Protection Area or SWRPA means a 300 foot area provided on each side of a surface water body designated as a C1 water or tributary to a C1 water that is a perennial stream, intermittent stream, lake, pond, or reservoir, as defined herein and shown on the USGS quadrangle map or in the County Soil Surveys within the associated HUC 14 drainage, pursuant to the Stormwater Management rules at N.J.A.C. 7:8-5.5(h).

• Sewer service areas are excluded from the 300ft buffers of C-1 water bodies and on all tributaries within the HUC 14 watershed.

• The United States Geologic Survey (USGS) uses a 14 digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC 14) to delineate and name each sub-watershed with each major watershed area.

More Definitions of HUC 14

HUC 14 means a watershed as defined by the United States Geological Survey, with a 14-digit identifier; a subwatershed.

HUC 14 means the hydrologic unit code system developed by the United States Geological Service for delineating and identifying drainage areas. The system starts with the largest possible drainage areas and progressively smaller subdivisions of the drainage area are delineated and numbered in a nested fashion. A drainage area with a hydrologic unit code (HUC) designation with 14 numbers, or HUC 14, is one of several sub watersheds of a larger watershed with 11 numbers, or a HUC 11. There are 921 HUC 14 sub watersheds in New Jersey that range in size from 0.1 to 42 square miles.

HUC 14 or "hydrologic unit code 14" means an area within which water drains to a particular receiving surface water body, also known as a subwatershed, which is identified by a 14-digit hydrologic unit boundary designation, delineated within New Jersey by the United States Geological Survey. “Impervious surface” means a surface that has been covered with a layer of material so that it is highly resistant to infiltration by water.

HUC 14 means an area within which water drains to a particular receiving surface- water body, which is identified by a fourteen-digit number, or “hydrologic unit code.” The HUC codes were developed by the U.S. Geological Survey. In New Jersey, a HUC14 correlates to a subwatershed. There are 921 HUC 14 subwatersheds in New Jersey that range in size from 0.1 to 42 square miles. The boundaries of HUC 14 subwatersheds in New Jersey are available from the Department’s Geographic Information Systems (GIS) downloads web page,http://www.nj.gov/dep/gis/download.htm.
