Requires DCA to establish procedures for inspection and abatement of mold hazards in residential buildings and school facilities, and certification programs for mold inspectors and mold hazard abatement workers.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to create rules for inspecting and removing mold hazards in residential buildings and school facilities, including public and charter schools. It mandates certification programs for mold inspectors and abatement workers, requiring specific training in mold identification, sampling methods, moisture source detection, and safety protocols. The DCA must adopt these rules within six months for inspections and 12 months for certifications, including continuing education requirements and enforcement mechanisms. The bill directly affects property owners, tenants, school districts, and contractors working in affected buildings.
