"Expediency and Accessibility in State Environmental Permitting Act"; appropriates $3,750,000.

This bill establishes the "EASE Permitting Portal" to streamline environmental permitting processes in New Jersey. It appropriates $3,750,000 to modernize the Department of Environmental Protection's NJEMS database system, creating a single online portal for businesses and the public to track permit applications. The law directly affects regulated entities (like commercial and industrial businesses) seeking permits under 17 environmental statutes, aiming to reduce processing times and improve transparency. Key provisions require the department to use technology for faster reviews while maintaining accountability in permit decisions.
