This bill mandates that the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) establish a 14-day initial period during which only New Jersey residents can purchase mobile sport fishing permits. These permits allow individuals to operate motor vehicles on beaches for fishing purposes and can vary in type, class, or duration, including annual, 3-day, weekday, and daily options.

Additionally, the bill empowers the DEP to create rules and regulations necessary for the implementation of this provision, including guidelines for verifying New Jersey residency. The act is set to take effect six months after its enactment, although the DEP is permitted to take preliminary administrative actions to facilitate its implementation prior to that date.
