Removes stump grinding as service requiring licensure by New Jersey Board of Tree Experts.
S 831 removes stump grinding from the list of services requiring a license from New Jersey's Board of Tree Experts. This change affects tree care operators and experts who previously needed a license specifically for stump grinding services. The bill amends existing law by deleting "stump grinding" from the definitions of both "tree care operator services" and "tree expert services," meaning individuals or businesses can now perform stump grinding without a state license. The bill became effective immediately upon enactment.
