N.J. Admin. Code § 7:7-16.6

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 21, November 4, 2024

Section 7:7-16.6 - Stormwater management

(a) If a project or activity meets the definition of "major development" at N.J.A.C. 7:8-1.2, then the project or activity shall comply with the Stormwater Management rules at N.J.A.C. 7:8.

(b) Rationale: The Stormwater Management Rules ( N.J.A.C. 7:8) specify standards for State, municipal, and regional stormwater management. These rules provide minimum Statewide runoff techniques, as well as special protection measures for environmentally sensitive water and land areas. Because development and land use activities contribute greatly to the types and amount of pollutants that are found in stormwater runoff, it is appropriate for major development projects in the coastal zone to comply with the Stormwater Management Rules' standards.
