    Chapter 34: Purchases or contracts payable out of state funds; public advertisements for bids

      Section: 52:34-6.6: Findings, declarations relative to biofuels.

          
1. The Legislature finds and declares that:

a. New Jersey is one of the leading states in the nation in the advancement of alternative energy technologies.

b. Attaining independence from our traditional reliance on petroleum-based fossil fuels has been a long-standing objective for the State.

c. Reducing our fossil-fuel dependence by shifting to greater use of clean energy from indigenous renewable resources, such as biofuel, has the potential to significantly improve local air quality, reduce the State's dependence on foreign oil, and reduce Statewide greenhouse gas emissions.

d. It is in the public interest for the State to advance biofuel technologies by adopting policies that foster the production and purchase of biofuels as means to promote alternative energy technologies, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and reduce reliance on petroleum-based fossil fuels.

L.2010, c.101, s.1.
