Directs BPU to prohibit Internet service providers from installing broadband telecommunications infrastructure on certain poles or underground facilities unless Internet service providers adhere to principle of "net neutrality."

This New Jersey bill (A3028) requires Internet service providers (ISPs) to follow net neutrality principles before installing broadband infrastructure on poles or underground facilities owned by public utilities or cable companies. Specifically, ISPs must publicly disclose network management practices, stop charging companies for prioritized content delivery ("paid prioritization"), and ensure customers can access all lawful internet content and apps at full speed without discrimination or slowdowns. The law applies to any ISP installing equipment on public utility-owned poles along roads or underground facilities within the state. It directly affects ISPs seeking to expand broadband infrastructure on existing public utility infrastructure.
