Provides for automatic approval of air pollution control permits after 90-day review period.
This bill would require New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to review air pollution control permit applications within 90 days. If the DEP doesn't approve or deny an application within that timeframe, the permit would be automatically approved. The bill applies to businesses seeking operating permits for facilities subject to the Air Pollution Control Act. This change would streamline the permitting process for companies constructing, modifying, or operating equipment that affects air quality, reducing potential delays in project implementation.
