New Jersey S3607 mandates the use of energy-efficient outdoor lighting fixtures by the State.

New Jersey S3607 requires the State to install, replace, or maintain outdoor lighting fixtures that meet specific energy efficiency standards. The bill mandates the use of fixtures with a rated output greater than 1,800 lumens to be replaced with cutoff luminaires and ensures the minimum illuminance adequate for the intended purpose is used. It also requires consideration of nationally recognized standards and energy conservation principles. The bill exempts certain temporary uses, compelling safety interests, and historic properties from these requirements.
