EO 215 Signed 9/89 by Gov. Kean
Whereas: Government must not only regulate
but must lead by example
The design and location of a project initiated or funded (> 20% financial assistance) by the State may have an impact on the environment
Protection of the environment and management of development is prudent and proper to avoid potential adverse environmental impacts
