Makes $500,000 supplemental appropriation from General Fund to DEP for dredging and restoration of Peckman River.
This bill allocates $500,000 from the state General Fund to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) for dredging and restoration work on the Peckman River. It directly affects four municipalities - Cedar Grove, Little Falls, Verona, and Woodland Park - in Essex and Passaic counties, requiring them to submit a joint plan for DEP approval to access funds. The bill mandates DEP to establish an application process for distributing the funds and waives permit fees for activities matching the approved river restoration plan.
