Requires DEP to conduct public awareness campaign about hunting, and requires posting of orange flag at entrances to State parks and forests when hunting is permitted.
This bill (A3618) requires New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to conduct a public education campaign about hunting seasons, rules, and state land hunting locations, with special focus on residents near hunting areas. It also mandates that the DEP post orange flags at every entrance to state parks and forests on days when hunting is permitted. The campaign must include public service announcements and educational programs, informed by other states' approaches. These measures directly affect park visitors, nearby residents, and hunters by improving awareness of hunting activities on state lands.
