New Jersey S2751 directs the Department of Environmental Protection to create guidelines for state and local agencies to encourage purchasing goods.

New Jersey S2751 mandates the Department of Environmental Protection to establish and update guidelines on recommended recycled material content for state and local agencies when contracting for goods. These guidelines, which can reference those from the United States Environmental Protection Agency, aim to promote the use of recycled materials in government purchases. The bill also requires these guidelines to be published in the New Jersey Register and mandates that new procurements reflect these guidelines, unless doing so would significantly increase costs or delay projects.
