Supreme Court of New Jersey

In the Matter of P.T. Jibsail Family Limited Partnership Tidelands License Number 1515-06-0012.1 TDI 190001

March 18, 2026

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that the Tidelands Act’s plain language permits the Tidelands Resource Council to set or modify pierhead lines when reviewing individual tidelands license applications, rather than requiring a uniform, prospective mapping of pierhead lines around all islands, and affirmed the Appellate Division’s judgment.
