Bill Summary

This bill would provide an exemption from the disclosure requirements established pursuant to subsection e. of section 2 of P.L.1983, c.392 (C.13:1E-127) for a business concern that is a secondary business activity corporation, a publicly traded corporation, or an institutional investor, including limited partnership interests, that is not the applicant, licensee, or permittee but which is listed in the disclosure statement of an applicant, licensee, or permittee. The exemption from the disclosure statement requirements would be available if the secondary business activity corporation, publicly traded corporation or institutional investor does not and will not have any responsibility for, or control of, the commercial solid waste or hazardous waste operations of the applicant, licensee, or permittee conducted in New Jersey. In addition, the bill would provide that an individual previously exempted from fingerprint and personal history disclosure requirements and a secondary business activity corporation, publicly traded corporation, or institutional investor, that directly or indirectly holds 5% or more of the equity or debt of the applicant, licensee, or permittee, shall be deemed to have responsibility for, or control of, the commercial solid waste or hazardous waste operations of the applicant, licensee, or permittee conducted in New Jersey. However, under the bill, that provision would not apply to chartered lending institutions holding debt, directly or indirectly, of the applicant, licensee, or permittee. Finally, the bill provides that a person that holds equity in or debt liability of a business concern that is exempt from the disclosure requirements established by subsection e. of section 2 of P.L.1983, c.392 (C.13:1E-127) shall also be exempt from those disclosure requirements.

AI Summary

This bill provides certain exemptions from disclosure requirements for businesses involved in licensing solid waste and hazardous waste operations, specifically for entities like secondary business activity corporations, publicly traded corporations, or institutional investors that are not directly applying for or holding the license but are listed in the applicant's disclosure statement. These exemptions apply if these entities have no responsibility for or control over the actual waste operations in New Jersey. However, the bill clarifies that individuals previously exempted from fingerprint and personal history disclosures, and secondary business activity corporations, publicly traded corporations, or institutional investors holding 5% or more of the applicant's equity or debt, will be considered to have responsibility or control over the waste operations, unless they are chartered lending institutions holding debt. Furthermore, individuals holding equity or debt in an otherwise exempt business concern will also be exempt from these disclosure requirements.
