a. The Commissioner of Environmental Protection shall establish any standards and

procedures necessary to implement the provisions of P.L.2021, c. 278 ( C.52:27D-141.15 et al.), including, but not limited to, production and use standards, and a process

products made with ordinary Portland cement. The commissioner shall publish on the department's Internet website a list of unit

concrete products certified by the department pursuant to this subsection. The Department of Environmental Protection shall consider a consensus evaluation

and reporting standard developed by an independent private organization such as the

by the unit concrete product industry or industry associations. b. Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Administrative Procedure Act,” P.L.1968,
