• This committee has not yet discussed the bill due to budgetary issues and Governor Corzine's effort to finance road improvements in NJ.
• The TC is working closely with Pinelands Preservation Alliance and New Jersey Conservation Foundation to pressure the Transportation Committee to put A823 on their agenda ASAP.
