On Aug. 5, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) entered the N.J. Protecting Against Climate Threats – Resilient Environments and Landscapes (NJ PACT REAL) proposal into the New Jersey Register for comments. NJ PACT REAL aims to modernize New Jersey’s environmental land use rules to respond to our changing climate. The proposed rules address sea-level rise, coastal storm surge, flooding, and stormwater management concerns while improving water quality, protecting natural resources, and streamlining permitting processes that will expedite resilient investments in New Jersey’s communities and economy.
Hear from New Jersey Coastal Resilience Collaborative (NJCRC) professionals in two topical sessions as they dive into the newly proposed REAL rules and how they will facilitate a more resilient New Jersey. You can choose to attend one or more of the following sessions:
Wednesday, October 16 at 10 a.m. – Coastal Protection & Natural Enhancements
Thursday, October 17 at 10 a.m. – Stormwater & Flood Hazards
The webinars are free and open to the public. A Zoom link will be provided upon registration.
