Introduced·1/9/24

New Jersey S275 mandates the reduction of helicopter operations at state-licensed aviation facilities to lower noise levels.

New Jersey S275 requires the Commissioner of Transportation to create rules and regulations aimed at reducing noise from helicopters at airports, heliports, and helistops. These regulations must include a reduction in the number of helicopter departures by at least 47% per weekday compared to the previous year. Exemptions apply to helicopters owned or operated by federal or military authorities, the State government, and those providing emergency medical transportation. The act takes effect immediately upon enactment.
