Prohibits dumping dredge spoils on and around islands without municipal approval.

This bill (A3484) prohibits New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) from approving the dumping of dredge spoils (sediment from river dredging) on or near Delaware River islands owned or controlled by the state or local governments, unless approved by all municipalities with land on the island. It requires the DEP to first seek authorization from each affected municipality, which must then adopt a local ordinance permitting the dumping. The bill specifically references Burlington Island as a case where the Legislature aims to prevent state agencies from using the island as a disposal site, maintaining its protected status for public recreation and education. The law applies immediately to all dredge spoil dumping, including existing disposal sites.
