Compliance & Enforcement plays a critical role within the DEP by deterring violations that would otherwise threaten our
environment and the health of our citizens. We pursue
the goal of violation deterrence in a manner that is fair and predictable in concert with partners on federal, state and local levels, ensuring that all NJ citizens and groups are
protected equally and businesses are on a level playing field.
|
|
To encourage compliance and environmental stewardship, we continue to seek innovative ways to provide incentives, information and assistance to those we regulate and to the interested public.
|
|
To ascertain compliance, we employ site inspections and detailed reviews of reported information.
|
|
To ensure compliance we put violators on notice, take administrative actions, levy penalties and where necessary, work cooperatively with criminal prosecutors.
