The department shall establish industry and environmental work groups as appropriate to consult on matters relating to the regulation of air pollution sources. The work groups shall consist of members of industry, environmental, and other interested and affected parties as may be deemed appropriate by the department.
Within 90 days after the effective date of P.L. 1995, c.188 (C.26:2C-9.5 et al.), the department shall also establish an industry and environmental work group to evaluate the effects of emissions reductions on emission fee revenues and the resultant impact on the department's air pollution control program.
