Codifies certain State Police regulations on pre-rental boat safety record retention; requires Superintendent of State Police to audit and publish certain boat rental instruction records.
This bill requires New Jersey boat rental businesses to maintain written records of pre-rental safety instruction provided to renters for three years, as currently mandated by State Police regulations. The Superintendent of State Police must annually audit these records and publish the audit results on the State Police website. Violations carry fines of $25 for a first offense, increasing to $100 for third or subsequent offenses. The bill codifies existing requirements into law, making the record-keeping and audit processes permanent without changing current safety instruction standards.
