Authorizes possession of bear deterrent spray.

This bill would amend New Jersey law to allow possession of EPA-approved bear deterrent spray, provided it's in its original container and clearly labeled for deterring bear attacks. Current law prohibits possession of sprays containing more than three-quarters of an ounce of chemical substance, while EPA-approved bear spray typically contains 7.6 ounces. The amendment specifically exempts EPA-approved bear deterrent spray from this size restriction, making it legal to possess in New Jersey. The bill does not change other restrictions on defensive sprays, and possession would remain subject to all applicable state and federal laws.
