A 1774 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Exempts veterans from camping facilities fees at State parks and forests.

This bill exempts veterans from paying any camping facilities fee at New Jersey State parks and forests. It directly affects honorably discharged veterans (including those who served in the American Merchant Marine during WWII) and Gold Star Family members, who will no longer pay fees for campsites, cabins, lean-tos, or shelters. The law amends existing statutes to prohibit the Department of Environmental Protection from charging these fees for veterans' use of park facilities. The exemption applies immediately upon the bill's enactment.
