New Jersey § 58:4-11
Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 58:4-11, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 58:4-11.
The Legislature finds and declares that the condition of many dams, lakes, and streams
throughout the State has been deteriorating at an alarming rate due to a chronic lack
of maintenance, and that the deterioration was exacerbated by unusually heavy amounts
of rainfall during the summer of 2000, particularly the storms occurring on August
12 and August 13 that created a state of emergency in several counties. The Legislature further finds and declares that these conditions have led to the collapse
of dams, polluted lakes, stream flooding and property damage to homes, businesses,
lake communities and public utilities; and that federal, State and local financial
resources have not met adequately the costs of remediating the sites and facilities
affected by these conditions. The Legislature therefore determines that it is in the public interest to provide
additional funding for State programs that are responsible for remediating, and for
providing assistance to other public or private entities to remediate, the conditions
described herein.
