S 2746 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Provides economic development incentives for remediating and redeveloping legacy landfills, brownfields, and contaminated sites.

This bill establishes the Landfills, Brownfields, and Contaminated Sites Redevelopment Incentive Program, which provides tax incentives for developers who remediate and redevelop legacy landfills, brownfields, and contaminated sites within designated redevelopment zones. Approved developers receive a 50% exemption from sales and use tax, exemptions for certain retail sales of tangible personal property and services, and exemptions for energy and utility services under specific conditions. To qualify, developers must complete remediation and redevelopment within seven years (with possible three-year extension), comply with environmental standards, pay prevailing wages to workers, and submit regular progress reports to the New Jersey Economic Development Authority and Department of Environmental Protection. The program limits participation to up to five approved applications over a five-year period, with the EDA administering the program and requiring annual reporting on its implementation and benefits.
