Christie passes law to prevent snow dumping on public property
When better to read about snow than in August?
A measure that first surfaced in New Jersey back in December is now law. Gov. Chris Christie has signed the Anti-Snow Dumping Act that prohibits commercial plow operators from pushing snow off private land to public property.
Introduced by Sen. Donald Norcross of Camden, the law carries a $250 fine for first offenses, as the Gloucester County Times reports. Subsequent violations will cost $500 each.
