New Jersey Statutes Title 13. Conservation and Development Parks and Reservations 13 § 17-15

The county clerk or registrar of deeds and mortgages shall not accept for filing any subdivision plat for lands in the district unless it bears the certification of approval of the commission in addition to all other requirements for filing a subdivision plat.  If the commission shall have taken no action to approve or disapprove a subdivision within the period required by section 13 of this act  1 it shall, at the request of the developer, certify such fact upon the plat.  Such certification shall be sufficient authorization for further action by the municipal approving authority and filing with the appropriate county recording officer.
