In a brief, New Jersey urged the U.S. Supreme Court to deny New York’s injunction request to stop the dissolution of the Waterfront Commission.
to reject New York’s “last-minute” attempt to save the 70-year-old agency regulating the region’s ports.
“To justify its continued existence, the commission has over-regulated the port, stifling commerce and exacerbating worker shortages,” the brief said. It also called New York’s lawsuit an “eleventh hour” attempt to stop plans that have been in the making for four years. New Jersey lawmakers voted to withdraw from the agency in 2018.
In response, Platkin called those concerns a “self-created emergency” and said State Police have already dedicated more than 17,000 hours to prepare to regulate the docks. State officials say about 90% of the region’s port activity happens in the New Jersey.
