Requires DEP to reimburse local units for costs incurred in responding to emergencies in State parks and forests.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to pay back local governments - such as counties, towns, fire districts, or other local agencies - for actual costs they incur while responding to emergencies in state parks or forests. Local units must submit a written invoice with supporting documentation within 30 days of the emergency, and the DEP must complete reimbursement within 30 days of receiving the invoice. The law applies only to costs paid after the bill becomes law. It does not create new emergency response duties but ensures local entities are compensated for existing costs.
