Requires DEP to establish resident-only priority registration period for sale of permits at Island Beach State Park before opening sales to non-residents.

Summary

The bill orders the Department of Environmental Protection to set a resident‑only registration period for annual, seasonal, short‑term fishing, beach‑driving and other motor‑vehicle permits at Island Beach State Park. Only people who have lived in New Jersey at least six months and can show a state driver’s license or ID may apply during that time; any non‑resident applications are rejected. After the priority period ends, any remaining permits are sold to non‑residents using the standard process.
