Increases littering fines and requires DOT to create a litter reporting program.
The bill raises fines for littering offenses by $100 each, with the additional funds going to the Department of Transportation (DOT). The DOT must develop a litter reporting program allowing people to report littering by phone or electronically, including via the DOT's website or a mobile app. The program will enable the submission of images. The DOT will review reports and, if credible, notify the litterer about the offense and urge them to help keep New Jersey clean.
