A 2123 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires certain solid waste incinerator facilities to install baghouse filters when making certain modifications to facility.

This bill requires major solid waste incinerators in New Jersey to install fabric filter systems (baghouse filters) when making certain modifications or expansions to their facilities. It directly affects solid waste incinerators classified as "major facilities" under state air pollution law that do not already have adequate filtration systems. The key provision mandates these filters be installed before a facility receives a permit for modifications or expansions exceeding specific thresholds (like a 10% annual waste increase), with exemptions for facilities already using equivalent or better technology. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
