NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION - ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION - SOLID AND HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM; COMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT - DIVISION OF COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL AND WASTE ENFORCEMENT - Solid Waste Rules;
Proposed Readoption without amendments: N.J.A.C. 7:26
Take notice that the NJ Department of Environmental Protection is proposing to readopt without amendments the Solid Waste rules at N.J.A.C. 7:26. As required by Executive Order No. 66(1978) and N.J.S.A. 52:14B-1 et seq. (P.L. 1995, c.65), the Department has examined the Solid Waste rules (including those aspects that are more stringent than the Federal program) and has determined that they remain necessary and reasonable for the protection of the environment and the public health, safety and welfare, and are proper for the purpose for which they were originally promulgated. As noted in the notices of extension of the expiration date for these rules, since May 2007, the Department has been developing amendments that are intended to streamline, strengthen and clarify the rules (see 39 N.J.R. 2248(c), 39 N.J.R. 5081(b), 40 N.J.R. 3718(a) and 40 N.J.R. 6965(a)). In view of the quantity and complexity of those amendments, the Department has determined that it will readopt the rules without amendment at this time and that it will publish a separate proposal containing those amendments in the near future.
