Introduced Text

New Jersey S1074 mandates the Department of Environmental Protection to assess stormwater impacts for warehouse and high-density development projects.

New Jersey S1074 requires the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to evaluate the cumulative impact of stormwater when reviewing applications for permits, authorizations, or other approvals for warehouse and high-density development projects. The DEP must consider stormwater impacts on the municipality where the development is located, adjoining municipalities, and the watershed. The evaluation must ensure stormwater management to induce water recharge, minimize offsite runoff, maintain stream channel integrity, and prevent nonpoint pollution.
