Lake Neepaulin
Lake Neepaulin is a small man-made freshwater lake located in Wantage Township in Sussex County, New Jersey in the United States.〔United States Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ). Retrieved July 20, 2015. See also: United States Geological Survey, ''Hamburg, NJ Quadrangle USGS 1:24 Topographic Map 41074B5''.〕 Located in the watershed of Papakating Creek, a tributary of the Wallkill River, the lake was created in the 1950s by damming an unnamed mountain stream as the feature of a private residential development. The stream, now known as Neepaulakating Creek, did not receive a name until 2002.〔Friends of Lake Neepaulin, Nathaniel Sajdak, Jennifer E. Runyon (USGS), United States Board of Geographic Names, (Case Brief: Neepaulakating Creek ) (2002). Retrieved July 20, 2015.〕
==Description==
Lake Neepaulin is a man-made lake created from the damming of Neepaulakating Creek, a small mountain stream that was not named until 2002.〔 The creek's headwaters are located approximately 0.4 miles (0.6 km) northwest of the north end of Lake Neepaulin.〔〔 These headwaters are located a short distance south of County Route 650 (Libertyville Road) roughly half-way between the hamlet of Libertville in Wantage Township and Sussex Borough.〔〔Google, Inc., (Google Maps location for 41°12'59"N 74°37'35"W ). Retrieved July 20, 2015.〕 Lake Neepaulin's elevation is 509 feet (155m) above sea level.〔 The lake is the center of a private residential development. From the dam, the creek flows southeast for 1.5 miles (2.4 km) before flowing into Papakating Creek, a tributary of the Wallkill River. The creek, lake, and its watershed are located in the Kittatinny Valley which is underlain by dark shale and limestone of the Martinsburg Formation and has soils that are glacial in origin.〔Avery Ala Drake Jr., Richard A. Volkert, Donald H. Monteverde, Gregory C. Herman, Hugh F. Houghton, Ronald A. Parker, and Richard F. Dalton, (I2540a: Bedrock geologic map of northern New Jersey, IMAP ).

Retrieved June 26, 2015.〕
According to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), two developed lake communities in the Papakating Creek watershed—Lake Neepaulin and the nearby Clove Acres Lake contribute to phosphorus loading in the waters of Papakating Creek. The phosphorus loading may originate from the runoff of fertilizer applications on residential lawns, nearby agricultural operations, or from large populations of geese that inhabit the lakes.〔New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, ''(State Development & Redevelopment Plan. Plan Endorsement Opportunities & Constraints: Analysis for Township of Frankford, Sussex County )'' (2009), 14, 16. Retrieved July 20, 2015. Note that the NJDEP report incorrectly refers to the lake not as "Neepaulin" but as "Neepaulakating".〕
