New Jersey S2491 makes potable water well construction on preserved farms eligible for soil and water conservation grants from SADC.

New Jersey S2491 amends existing law to include potable water well construction projects on preserved farms as eligible for soil and water conservation grants from the State Agriculture Development Committee (SADC). This change expands the current eligibility criteria, which includes terrace systems, diversions, and other water control systems. Landowners within municipally approved farmland preservation programs can now apply for grants to construct potable water wells, subject to certain conditions. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
