Prohibits DEP from requiring person under 16 years of age to obtain horseback riding permit to ride in State wildlife management areas.

This bill prohibits New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) from requiring children under 16 to obtain a horseback riding permit or pay the $2.00 nonrefundable application fee when riding in state wildlife management areas. It directly affects young riders (under age 16) who use these public spaces for horseback riding. The law removes an existing permit requirement and fee specifically for this age group, while allowing the DEP to adopt necessary rules for implementation. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
