4. a. Within 270 days of the effective date of P.L.2003, c.224, the Department of Environmental Protection shall investigate and map those areas of the State at which large areas of historic fill exist. The department shall prioritize its investigations of historic fill areas giving highest priority to those areas of the State that are known or suspected to contain historic fill. This information shall be updated periodically as necessary. The information derived from the investigation shall be made available to the public by entering it into the Department of Environmental Protection's existing geographic information system, by making this information available on the system, and by making copies of any maps and data available to the public.
The functions required pursuant to this section shall be considered a site remediation obligation of the State. The department may charge a reasonable fee for the reproduction of the maps and data which fee shall reflect the cost of their reproduction.
b. Upon completion of an investigation of an area of historic fill by the department and upon the department's determination of the location of historic fill in an area, a person performing a remediation may rely upon that information for that person's performance of a remediation and selection of a remedial action pursuant to subsection h. of section 35 of P.L.1993, c.139 (C.58:10B-12).
c. The entire cost of investigation required pursuant to this section shall be borne by the department from appropriations made to it by the Legislature specifically for this purpose.
