Technical Assistance Grants (TAGs)
The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection announces
the introduction of a Technical Assistance Grant program. The
program provides funding to nonprofit community groups to employ
independent Licensed Site Remediation Professionals as technical
advisors to perform activities to improve the public's understanding
of environmental conditions and remediation of contaminated sites
in their communities. Information about the eligibility requirements
and application process is available below.
TAG Rule
The requirements for obtaining a TAG are available in Subchapter
10 of the Administrative Requirements for the Remediation of Contaminated
Sites (N.J.A.C. 7:26C). This rule establishes the eligibility
requirements, the pre-application and application requirements,
the eligible TAG activities, and the reporting requirements for
a community group that has received a TAG. For a courtesy copy
of the TAG rule, please visit: https://dep.nj.gov/wp-content/uploads/rules/rules/njac7_26c.pdf
