Establishes registration and training program for commercial applicators of substances for snow and ice removal.

New Jersey's A5289 establishes a voluntary registration and training program for commercial businesses that apply deicing substances for snow and ice removal on private property. It requires these applicators to complete certified training on water-protective methods, pass an exam, and register with the Environmental Protection Department. Registered businesses must maintain service records, submit annual reports, and follow approved techniques to qualify for liability protection against snow/ice hazard claims. The program aims to reduce water contamination from excessive deicer runoff while offering cost benefits to participating businesses.
