The state is launching DEP Connects, a new opportunity from the state regulatory agency to provide communication to residents about DEP programs and to hear from community members across the state. They will hold events in each of the six regional areas across the state.
Sign Up to Get Notices
We highly encourage you to sign up to get information on when the DEP will hold an event in your region so you don’t miss any opportunity to be heard.
