TRENTON- As part of its commitment to common-sense government, the Christie Administration this week proposed technical revisions to land use rules for coastal areas that will maintain New Jersey's high standards for protection of natural resources while providing more clarity to people who live and work in these areas, Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin announced.
The proposal consolidates the Coastal Zone Management rules and Coastal Permit Program rules to streamline and align them more seamlessly with other DEP land use permitting processes, specifically flood hazard area and freshwater wetlands programs.
