Madaket Harbor and Long Pond make up a unique ecosystem encompassing approximately 9 square miles. These two systems are hydrologically connected via Hither Creek and the Madaket Ditch. Long Pond is somewhat isolated from the whole system, and may be evaluated as having separate water quality issues. It is relatively narrow and winding with depths of 4-6 feet with no deep basins.
