A 3927 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes $500,000 supplemental appropriation from General Fund to DEP for dredging and restoration of Peckman River.

This bill appropriates $500,000 from New Jersey's General Fund to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) specifically for dredging and restoring the Peckman River. The funds will be distributed to the Townships of Cedar Grove, Little Falls, and Verona, and the Borough of Woodland Park, which are directly affected by the river's condition. Municipalities must submit a joint plan to the DEP for approval, and the DEP will waive permit fees for dredging, cleaning, and restoration activities consistent with an existing statewide general permit. The project aims to improve river health and flood management in these communities.
