\nTake notice that the NJ Department of Environmental Protection is proposing to amend the Coastal Permit Program rules, to add a new permit-by-rule and two new coastal general permits for the construction of wind turbines on land; add a new permit-by-rule for the construction of solar panels; and describe the situations in which construction of a wind turbine or solar panel does not require a coastal permit.\u00a0 The Department is also proposing amendments to the Coastal Zone Management rules, N.J.A.C. 7:7E, to facilitate the construction of wind turbines in the coastal zone in appropriate locations, identify particular areas where construction of large scale wind turbines would not be appropriate, and set forth monitoring, habitat evaluation and impact assessment requirements for birds, bats and marine organisms. \u00a0The Department is also proposing amendments to allow the construction of a demonstration wind energy facility in the ocean waters of the State to assist in assessing the impacts of such a facility.\u00a0 In addition, the Department is proposing amendments to the Flood Hazard Area Control Act Rules, N.J.A.C. 7:13, to add a new permit-by-rule for the construction of wind turbines on land.<\/p>\n
