New Jersey § 32:18-11

§ 32:18-11.

ARTICLE X 1. Subject to the provisions of this compact the commission, as soon as may be after

its organization, after an investigation and after conducting public hearings upon

due notice, shall by order prescribe the reasonable date on or before which each municipality

or other entity discharging sewage into the designated waters within the district

shall be treating such sewage in accordance with the standards specified in this compact. And such order may prescribe that certain specific progress shall be made at certain

definite times prior to the final date fixed in such order. It is the desire of all parties to accomplish the objects herein set forth with the

least possible injury to investments which have already been made in the construction

of sewage treatment plants within the district, and where changes or additions to

such plants would be necessary to conform to the standards herein adopted, a reasonable

time to effect such changes or additions may, in the discretion of the commission,

be granted.
