| Description: | Passaic River, which flows into the northwest end of Newark Bay, is used by vessels to Passaic, a manufacturing city at the head of navigation 13 miles above the mouth. Above the Wall Street bridge at Passaic the river is obstructed by boulders partly showing above the water for 1.5 miles to the Dundee Dam. The city of Newark extends along the river for a distance of nearly 5 miles above the mouth. The towns of Belleville, Arlington, Rutherford, and Nutley, and several villages are on the river between Newark and Passaic. The channel entrance is well marked. Waterborne commerce on the river consists of barge shipments of sand, gravel, and petroleum products.
Hackensack River flows into the northeast end of Newark Bay and is navigable for about 17.8 miles to the dams at New Milford. |
