S 4630 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Directs DEP to establish scrap tire hauler license and scrap tire storage, collection, and disposal site permit.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to establish a licensing system for businesses that collect and transport scrap tires (scrap tire haulers) and a permitting system for sites that store, collect, or dispose of scrap tires. It mandates that only licensed haulers can move scrap tires and only permitted sites can handle them, with haulers required to maintain $150,000 in financial assurance and sites needing closure funds. The bill also creates a tracking system for tire shipments and sets fines up to $25,000 per violation for non-compliance, while exempting small businesses storing fewer than 500 tires or up to 1,000 tires in secure containers. These requirements directly affect tire haulers, disposal facilities, and businesses handling scrap tires.
