NJGS 5 E 2 2000, NJ, is a New Jersey Geodetic Survey survey disk located in the island formed by the circular intersection of Bay Road and North Point Road in the northeast section of Ocean City, Cape May County, NJ. The disk is mounted flush in a drill hole in a concrete base that surrounds the flagpole for the US Coast Guard Egg Harbor Station, about 15 feet southwest of the southeast end of a sign for the station, and about one foot southeast of the pole. The disk was monumented by the New Jersey Geodetic Survey in 2000, and it is stamped 5 E 2 2000. It is in the National Geodetic Survey database at PID = AM6986 (visit link) . To reach from the intersection of State Route 52 (East 9th Street) and Wesley Avenue in downtown Ocean City, go northeast on Wesley Avenue for about 0.96 miles to the intersection with North Street where Wesley Avenue turns into Wesley Road and, eventually, Gardens Parkway. Continue northeasterly on Wesley Road and Gardens Parkway for about 0.49 miles to the intersection with Atlantic Blvd. Turn left and go westerly on Atlantic Blvd for about 0.08 miles to the intersection with North Point Road. Turn right and go northwest, west and southwest on North Point Road for about 0.19 miles to the intersection with Bay Road, the island in the circle, the flagpole and the disk on the right. Recovery of this station was first logged at the Geocaching datasheet for TIDAL 2 STA 69, PID = JU0484.
