New Jersey DEP Compliance Advisory!








NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
#2023-24     Issued: 12/7/2023

COMPLIANCE ADVISORY

REMINDER TO TAKE ACTION TO COMPLY WITH ENHANCED VAPOR RECOVERY EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS BEFORE DECEMBER 23, 2024


WHO IS AFFECTED BY THIS ADVISORY?

Owners and operators of any gasoline dispensing facility (GDF) constructed in New Jersey before November 9, 2017. A GDF is any stationary facility that dispenses gasoline into the fuel tank of a motor vehicle, which makes it subject to New Jersey Air Pollution Control rules for gasoline transfer operations.


WHY IS DEP ISSUING THIS ADVISORY?

On December 23, 2017, the New Jersey Air Pollution Control rules (N.J.A.C. 7:27-16.3) were amended to include Enhanced Vapor Recovery (EVR) standards, established by California Air Resources Board (CARB), which aim to improve the effectiveness of gas pump vapor recovery systems, reduce vapor leaks from underground storage tanks, reduce evaporation from hoses and nozzles between use, redesign of nozzles to reduce drips, enhanced diagnostics to alert attendants when vapor recovery equipment malfunctions and improve the long-term reliability of vapor recovery equipment. The regulations were implemented in two phases. Phase II standards, which
primarily affected hoses and nozzles and the decommissioning of older gas pump vapor recovery systems, was completed in December 2020. Phase I standards, which primarily involve the tanks, piping, and fill ports, require that affected equipment be “CARB EVR-certified” on or before the deadline of December 23, 2024.

Raymond R. Conley: August 1933 – November 2023








Ray Conley & Charlie CarrollIt is with great sadness that we announce the passing of the longest tenured employee here at the John W. Kennedy Company, Ray Conley. 


Ray started with the Kennedy Company back in 1970. He held several different positions at the company over the years, including purchasing, inventory control, inside sales and customer service. He was a dedicated and loyal employee.  If you had the pleasure to meet Ray, the words warm & fuzzy weren’t the first words that would come to mind.  However, if you knew Ray, you saw a very kind, caring, funny and genuine guy.   He was, as they say, “a foxhole guy!”

Ray was an athlete as well, playing baseball for the U.S. Army and a goaltender for the Rhode Island Reds of the American Hockey League. Ray was also an avid golfer and loved talking sports.

Born in Providence, he was the son of the late Joseph and Sadie (Costello) Conley, brother to the late Joseph “Bud” Conley, and survived by his sister Eleanor (Conley) Perdue. He was the loving uncle of seven nieces and nephews and eight grand nieces and nephews.

His visitation will be held Tuesday, November 14, 2023, from 8:30-9:30 AM in the Pontarelli-Marino Home, 971 Branch Ave, Providence followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 a.m. in St. Augustine Church, 639 Mt. Pleasant Ave, Providence.

Burial with Military Honors will follow at the RI Veterans Cemetery, Exeter, RI. In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to Operation Stand Down in Johnston, RI:  www.osdri.org .
