尼波林湖(英語:Lake Neepaulin)是位於美國紐澤西州蘇塞克斯縣旺蒂奇英語Wantage Township, New Jersey的一座小型人工淡水湖[2]。坐落於沃爾基爾河支流帕帕卡廷溪英語Papakating Creek的分水界,1950年代在無名山澗上的一座水壩之上形成,而該水壩也是一座私人住宅區的一大特徵。這條溪流如今被稱之爲尼寶拉卡廷溪英語Neepaulakating Creek,直至2002年才得到名字[3]

描述

編輯

尼波林湖是一座形成於尼寶拉卡廷溪英語Neepaulakating Creek水壩之上的人造湖泊,這條小型山澗直至2002年依然未被命名[3]。這條溪流的源頭英語River source位於尼波林湖北端西北部大約0.4英里(0.64 km)[1][3],距離650號縣道英語List of county routes in Sussex County, New Jersey(利伯蒂維爾路)以南不遠處,大致位於旺蒂奇英語Wantage Township, New Jersey蘇塞克斯市鎮英語Sussex, New Jersey兩個村鎮的中間位置[2][4]。尼波林湖海拔509英尺(155米) [1],是一座私人住宅開發項目英語Private community的中心區域。從大壩開始,湖泊溪流向東南處流動1.5英里(2.4 km),然後流入沃爾基爾河支流帕帕卡廷溪英語Papakating Creek。溪流、湖泊,以及其流域均處於基特阿廷尼山谷英語Kittatinny Valley,該山谷被馬丁尼斯堡地層英語Martinsburg Formation的深色頁岩和石灰岩覆蓋,其土壤起源於冰川[5][6]

根據新澤西州環境保護部英語New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection的説法,帕帕卡廷溪流域的兩個已開發的湖泊社區—即尼波林湖及其臨近的丁香英畝湖英語Clove Acres Lake對其載荷有做出貢獻。磷載荷可能源自社區附近居民草坪施肥的逕流、臨近的農業作業、或是湖泊中的大量鵝群[7]

歷史

編輯

1950年代,一位房地產開發商在蘇塞克斯市鎮西部與南部的一條無名溪流上築壩,並修建尼波林湖[8]。這座湖泊位於一個尚在修建計劃中的私人湖濱住宅社區的中心[8],名字則由住宅小區開發商子女們的名字組合而來[9]。2014年,旺蒂奇鎮政府從一個非盈利管理組織的手中收購了該湖泊,並向鎮上的居民開放了指定的公共區域以進行消遣娛樂[10][11]。在收購此區域時,鎮政府還承擔了從紐澤西州環保局英語New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection償還120萬美元大壩修復貸款的責任[12]
