Exempts certain plenary winery licensees from filing requirements imposed on retail sellers of litter-generating products.
S 515 exempts plenary winery license holders in New Jersey from filing annual returns for a user fee on litter-generating products, provided their annual retail sales of these products remain below $500,000. Currently, retailers with under $500,000 in sales are already exempt from the fee itself but must still submit filings; this bill removes that filing requirement specifically for wineries meeting the sales threshold. The change clarifies that wineries already qualifying for the fee exemption do not need to comply with return-filing obligations under the existing law. It does not alter the fee structure or affect other retailers.
