New Jersey Statutes Title 13. Conservation and Development Parks and Reservations 13 § 1I-5

If any person violates any of the provisions of this act or any rule, regulation or order promulgated pursuant to the provisions of this act, the department may institute an action in a court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief to prohibit and prevent such violation or violations and the said court may proceed in the action in a summary manner.

Any person who violates any of the provisions of this act or any rule, regulation or order promulgated pursuant to this act shall be liable to a penalty of not more than $3,000.00 for each offense to be collected in a summary proceeding under the Penalty Enforcement Law (N.J.S. 2A:58-1 et seq.), or in any case before a court of competent jurisdiction wherein injunctive relief has been requested.  The Superior Court shall have jurisdiction to enforce said Penalty Enforcement Law.  If the violation is of a continuing nature, each day during which it continues shall constitute an additional, separate and distinct offense.  The department is hereby authorized and empowered to compromise and settle any claim for a penalty under this section in such amount in the discretion of the department as may appear appropriate and equitable under all of the circumstances.
