Requires DEP to evaluate cumulative impact of stormwater when reviewing applications associated with warehouse and other high-density development projects.
This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to evaluate the overall stormwater impact - across multiple municipalities and watersheds - when reviewing permits for warehouses or other high-density development projects. It directly affects developers seeking approvals for such projects and municipalities adjacent to proposed sites. Key provisions mandate the DEP to ensure stormwater management minimizes runoff to neighboring areas, promotes groundwater recharge, protects stream channels, and prevents increased pollution in the watershed. The law applies immediately upon passage and focuses on regional environmental impacts rather than just local effects.
