The Site Remediation Reform Act ("SRRA")(N.J.S.A. 58:10C-1 et seq.) established the Site Remediation Professional Licensing Board ("Board"). SRRA established a new process for remediating contaminated sites, to be overseen by a newly created licensed professional, the Licensed Site Remediation Professional ("LSRP").

The proposed new rules encompass the following:
1. Licensing of LSRPS, including eligibility requirements and examinations; 2. Fees to be imposed on and collected by the Board including annual fees and licensing fees; 3. Continuing Education of LSRPs, including the continuing education requirements each LSRP must meet and the criteria for approval of Continuing Education Credits for continuing education programs and activities; 4. Auditing of LSRPs by the Board, including how LSRPs shall be selected for audit; 5. The rules of professional conduct that LSRPs must follow; 6. The procedures for disciplinary proceedings including the filing of complaints; investigation of complaints by the Board, actions the Board may take relative to complaints and violations, and hearing requirements; 7. The procedures for adjudicatory proceedings; and 8. The prohibition against retaliatory action.
