Cleanup process under review today
New Jersey’s toxic site cleanup process will be discussed this morning at 10 a.m. at a joint hearing of Senate and Assembly environmental committees in Trenton.
Among other things, the committees are expected to consider: Establishing a licensing program to hold environmental consultants accountable, dedicating resources to the “most important” cases and giving the DEP new remedy selection authority.
According to (Sen. Bob Smith and Assemblyman John McKeon), The DEP is expected to highlight its plan to cut down on a backlog of more than 20,000 site remediation cases currently facing New Jersey.
