Bill Summary

This bill reconciles certain provisions of P.L.2009, c.313 (C.52:38-7) and P.L.2009, c.335 (C.52:40-1 et seq.). Specifically, the bill modifies the language used in section 6 of P.L.2009, c.335 (C.52:40-6) to describe the use of 0.5% of construction project funds set aside for women and minority group members to make it conform to P.L.2009, c.313 by expanding the funded activities to include outreach as well as training, and to include not only construction trade occupations, but other occupations in the construction industry, such as management and engineering. The bill also modifies the scope of projects subject to the 0.5% set-aside under P.L.2009, c.335, to make it conform with the requirements of P.L.2009, c.313 that the set-aside apply to local, as well as State, projects.

AI Summary

This bill reconciles certain provisions of two previous laws (P.L.2009, c.313 and P.L.2009, c.335) to modify the language and expand the scope of a requirement that 0.5% of construction project funds be set aside for outreach and training programs for minorities and women in the construction industry, including not only construction trade occupations but also other occupations like management and engineering. The bill also aligns the scope of projects subject to the set-aside to include both state and local projects, and provides for additional reporting requirements on the programs funded through this set-aside.
