Directs DEP to waive walk-in and bicycle entrance fees to State parks and forests during certain holidays.
This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to eliminate walk-in and bicycle entrance fees at state parks and forests during Memorial Day weekend, the week of the Fourth of July, and Labor Day weekend. It directly affects visitors entering these parks using those specific entry methods during the designated holiday periods. The key provision mandates the DEP to waive these fees without exception for the specified holidays. The law would take effect one year after enactment.
