Requires outdoor lighting fixtures installed or replaced by, or on behalf of State, or at projects receiving State funds, to meet certain criteria.

New Jersey's S 1610 requires all outdoor lighting fixtures installed or replaced by State agencies or on state-funded projects to meet strict energy and light pollution standards. The bill mandates fully shielded fixtures with a maximum 2% light emission above 80 degrees, a BUG rating of U0, and a color temperature no higher than 2,700 Kelvin (with limited exceptions for sports fields or nature preserves). It also requires motion sensors to automatically adjust lighting, limits unnecessary brightness, and prohibits light trespass beyond property lines. These changes directly affect State agencies, public projects, and contractors working with state funds, aiming to reduce energy use and protect night skies. The law takes effect three months after enactment.
