Environmental Goals. This Agreement articulates environmental goals and milestones for New Jersey in the areas of air quality/radiation, water quality, drinking water, site remediation, solid/hazardous waste management, pesticides, mercury and pollution prevention. The goals and milestones are considered ambitious yet reasonable. In developing these goals, a number of resources were reviewed including, the national goals embodied in Proposed Environmental Goals for America and Milestones for 2005 (USEPA, 1995), as well as state and federal statutory and regulatory requirements. Additionally, through the stakeholder input process, the goals and milestones were designed to be as reflective as possible of societal values regarding environmental resources. In order to increase the utility of the goals for management purposes, they are broken down into the following three levels for each of the resource areas: overall goal, subgoals and specific milestones/objectives. The overall goals are long-range general goals for the given resource (e.g., air quality) in its entirety. A list of the environmental goals developed during this process is shown in Table 1 and can also be found in the attached Environmental Goals/Indicators tables for each area. The subgoals break down the overall goal into manageable elements (e.g., criteria air pollutants) generally identified as key environmental issue areas in New Jersey's SFY97 Self- Assessment document. Milestones/objectives are provided for each subgoal that, to the extent possible, quantify desired environmental outcomes in a given time frame (e.g., statewide attainment of ozone ambient air quality standard by 2007). The milestones/objectives represent the goals associated with the greatest level of specificity and, therefore, were chosen to serve as the basis for the environmental indicator framework used in this Agreement. In other words, environmental indicators were developed to measure progress toward achieving each identified milestone/objective. To the extent possible, current New Jersey environmental quality data were reviewed to assess Table 1 Overall Environmental Goals in this Agreement1 Sea Level Rise (related to global climate change) To be developed.

Environmental Goals. This Agreement articulates environmental goals and milestones for New Jersey in the areas of global climate change, air quality/radiation, water quality, land and natural resources, site remediation, solid/hazardous waste management, pesticides, and mercury. This PPA also contains initial goal and subgoal/key issue setting components for a new, operational area - Open and Effective Government. The goals and milestones are considered to be ambitious, yet reasonable. In developing these goals, a number of resources were reviewed including, the national goals embodied in Proposed Environmental Goals for America and Milestones for 2005 (USEPA, 1995), the EPA Strategic Plan (1997), the draft NJDEP Strategic Plan (1998) as well as state and federal statutory and regulatory requirements. Additionally, through the stakeholder input process, the goals and milestones were designed to be as reflective as possible of societal values regarding environmental resources.

Milestones/objectives are provided for each subgoal that, to the extent possible, quantify desired environmental outcomes in a given time frame (e.g., statewide attainment of ozone ambient air quality standard by 2007). Milestones are provided when it was feasible to develop quantitative targets for a given timeframe; objectives are provided that generally reflect a directional goal statement (e.g., increase, decrease, maintain) where targets have not yet been established. In the future, it is the intent of NJDEP to advance objectives into milestones as feasible and appropriate. The milestones/objectives in the PPA represent the goals associated with the greatest level of specificity and, therefore, were chosen to serve as the basis for the environmental indicator framework used in this Agreement.
