Concerns procedures with respect to repair of certain public utility facilities and related street repaving.

This bill requires public utilities (including electricity, gas, water, sewer, and telecom providers) to notify municipalities 24 hours before work on poles or underground facilities in a single municipality, and to restore streets to their original condition after repairs using hot patch asphalt and repaving. It mandates paying prevailing wages for restoration work and imposes daily fines of up to $1,000 for failure to restore streets within 90 days, with exceptions for winter months (November-April) and emergencies. The law applies to all utilities operating in New Jersey, directly affecting how they coordinate with local governments during street repairs. Key provisions include mandatory municipal consent for pole placement in gas-lit areas and emergency exemptions for immediate safety threats.
