To be eligible for a tax credit for the costs of remediation pursuant to section 1 of P.L.2003, c. 296 (C.54:10A-5.33), a taxpayer shall submit an application, in writing, to the Department of Environmental Protection for review and certification of the eligible costs of the remediation for the remediation tax credit. The department shall review the request for certification upon receipt of an application therefor, and shall approve or deny the application for certification on a timely basis. The department shall certify the eligible costs of the remediation if the department finds that:
(1) the taxpayer had entered into a memorandum of agreement with the Commissioner of Environmental Protection for the remediation of a contaminated site and the taxpayer is in compliance with the memorandum of agreement;
(2) the taxpayer is not liable, pursuant to paragraph (1) of subsection c. of section 8 of P.L.1976, c. 141 (C.58:10-23.11g) for the contamination at the site; and
(3) the costs of the remediation were actually and reasonably incurred.
When filing an application for certification of the eligible costs of a remediation pursuant to this section, the taxpayer shall submit to the department a certification of the total remediation costs incurred by the taxpayer for the remediation of the subject property, and such other information as the department deems necessary in order to make the certifications and findings pursuant to this section.
