N.J. State Commission of Investigation
New Jersey Transit's Bus Subsidy Program 1992
The Commission held a public hearing in July 1992 into allegations of
serious irregularities in NJT's $5 million Bus Subsidy Program.
The Commission revealed that two bus companies had, largely through the
inattention of NJT overseers, been able to obtain several million
dollars in subsidies for the personal and private commercial expenses of
the companies' owners. As a result of the Commission's findings, NJT
undertook an extensive reform effort. Criminal charges stemming from the
Commission's probe resulted in prison terms and/or community service and
restitution totaling more than $750,000 by five individuals in February
1995.
