DEP Hearings on Coastal Rules End; Public Comment Period Still Open

DEP Hearings on Coastal Rules End; Public Comment Period Still Open

By Vince Conti

Cape May Mayor Zach Mullock and City Manager Paul Dietrich spoke against proposed state coastal land use regulations at the final public hearing on the regulations, held remotely Sept. 19.

The new rules, proposed by the Department of Environmental Protection, look to potential impacts from climate change at the end of the 21st century. They are based on a projection of a 5-foot rise in the sea level, which opponents of the regulations say is no longer the consensus scientific position.
