This bill amends R.S.4:24-18 to allow soil conservation districts in New Jersey to have more than five supervisors. The new legal language specifies that each district must have "at least five supervisors," who are appointed by the State Soil Conservation Committee, which is also given the authority to determine the maximum number of supervisors for each district. The previous law limited the number of supervisors to five.

The bill aims to enhance the governance of soil conservation districts by providing flexibility in the number of supervisors, potentially allowing for more diverse representation and expertise. This change is intended to improve the effectiveness of soil conservation efforts within the state. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
