Regulatory Update – New Mandatory and Regulatory Remediation Timeframes Established
Have you recently received a letter from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) advising that DEP has conducted a test run of its Remedial Priority System Scoring (“RPS”) model and that it has preliminarily ranked your site?
After May 7, 2012, all responsible parties remediating a site in New Jersey will be required to retain an Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP) to oversee and direct remedial work.
Persons responsible to remediate property now face mandatory obligations in a wide variety of scenarios that could be enforced by the NJDEP or sanctioned for lack of compliance.
NJDEP announces first Licensed Site Remediation Professional (LSRP) exam date.
DEP’s Waiver Rule was signed March 7, 2012 and will become effective on August 1, 2012. The Waiver Rule allows parties to request a waiver from strict compliance with any of the Department’s rules.
The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) proposed a new rule to waive or eliminate strict compliance with DEP requirements in limited circumstances.
