Este programa innovador abordará la resiliencia de la infraestructura e instalaciones críticas

TRENTON, N.J. (23 de julio de 2014) – Como una manera de continuar con los esfuerzos de minimizar la dureza de futuros apagones de gran envergadura y aumentar la resiliencia  energética en el Estado, la Administración Christie tomó hoy medidas para establecer el Banco de Resiliencia Energética de New Jersey (ERB, por sus siglas en inglés) -el primero de su tipo en el país, que se centrará en la recuperación de energía. Con el uso de US$200 millones a través de la segunda partida de fondos del Programa del Bloque de Subsidios para el Desarrollo de la Comunidad/ Asistencia para Recuperación por Desastres (CDBG-DR, en inglés) de New Jersey, el ERB apoyará el desarrollo de los recursos energéticos que se encuentran distribuidos en instalaciones críticas en todo el estado.

Hoy, el Consejo de Empresas de Servicios Públicos de New Jersey (BPU, en inglés) aprobó un acuerdo subreceptor con la Autoridad de Desarrollo Económico de New Jersey (EDA, en inglés) para trabajar conjuntamente en el establecimiento y operación del ERB; acuerdo subreceptor que fue aprobado por la  EDA el 10 de julio. Ambas instituciones también anunciaron la contratación de personal para cubrir los dos puestos de liderazgo del ERB.

“El inicio de actividades del Banco de Resiliencia Energética, como el primero de su tipo en el país para enfocar la resiliencia energética, es otro esfuerzo de la Administración Christie para aumentar la capacidad de recuperación de energía en las instalaciones críticas a lo largo de New Jersey” -dijo Dianne Solomon, Presidenta del BPU.  “Aumentar la capacidad de recuperación de energía, ya sea a través del Banco de Resiliencia Energética, el BPU ha aprobado la implementación de mejores medidas de resiliencia en las empresas de servicios públicos o el Programa de Energía Limpia de New Jersey, minimizando así el impacto potencial de futuros apagones generalizados debido a tormentas de envergadura tal como el huracán Sandy”.

El huracán Sandy causó daños extensos a la infraestructura energética de New Jersey, interrumpiendo el suministro de electricidad, petróleo y gas natural a los consumidores en todo el estado y provocando que casi cinco millones de residentes se quedaran sin electricidad. Los recursos energéticos distribuidos, incluyendo la cogeneración de electricidad y calor (CHP, en inglés), las pilas de combustible (FC, en inglés) y la red de inversores solares con baterías de almacenamiento, permitieron que algunas instalaciones críticas, tales como hospitales, plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales y universidades, pudieran seguir operando mientras la red eléctrica estaba fuera de servicio.  El lanzamiento del ERB permitirá que muchas más de esas instalaciones permanezcan activas durante la ocurrencia de futuros apagones.  Además de ofrecer resistencia en energía, los beneficios de los recursos energéticos distribuidos también incluyen costos de energía más bajos y estables, un medio ambiente más limpio con la reducción de emisiones y el aumento de la eficiencia global.

“Los recursos energéticos distribuidos resultaron ser extremadamente resistentes después del embate de Sandy; pero desafortunadamente, debido a altos costos iniciales, muchas instalaciones críticas no tienen estas soluciones de recuperación de energía disponibles” -dijo Michele Brown, Directora Ejecutiva de la EDA de New Jersey.  “El ERB ayudará a enfrentar esta necesidad insatisfecha al proporcionar apoyo técnico y financiero a las instalaciones críticas a través de todo New Jersey para asegurarles una vía para la construcción de su resiliencia energética”.

Como se señala en la enmienda al Plan de Acción de New Jersey, el ERB se enfocará en proveer capital con préstamos de bajo interés y donaciones a las instalaciones críticas que ofrecen los mayores beneficios de resiliencia para el estado, incluyendo las plantas de tratamiento de aguas y aguas residuales y los hospitales; y financiación subsecuente dirigida a otras instalaciones críticas, tales como el transporte y las redes de transporte, servicios de atención de emergencias -incluyendo policía, bomberos, edificios de servicios de emergencia y escuelas- que pueden funcionar como refugios en caso de emergencias. Proveer soluciones de energía resistente en las plantas de suministro de agua y tratamiento de aguas residuales será la primera prioridad del ERB; coherente con las prioridades a largo plazo de recuperación y manejo de emergencias del Estado.

Las juntas directivas de cada una de las agencias han aprobado un acuerdo subreceptor para avanzar en la creación del ERB.  Según el acuerdo, la EDA y el BPU trabajarán en colaboración para diseñar los parámetros del programa, incluyendo las condiciones técnicas, operacionales y financieras que los solicitantes tendrán que cumplir para recibir la financiación. En consonancia con otros programas administrados de manera conjunta, la EDA emprenderá la revisión financiera y realizará las diligencias debidas de los solicitantes y proyectos que hayan terminado exitosamente la revisión técnica del BPU.  A fines de este verano, se anticipa que se solicitará a las juntas directivas de la EDA y del BPU la aprobación de la Guía para la Asignación de Fondos del Programa del ERB, que delineará los parámetros a través de los cuales se proporcionarán las donaciones y los préstamos al grupo inicial de instalaciones críticas.

Brown y Salomón también anunciaron la contratación de dos personas que estarán al mando del ERB.

Mitch Carpen de Plainfield, New Jersey, ha sido nombrado director ejecutivo del ERB.  El cargo de director ejecutivo constituye la jefatura del ERB, a cargo de todos los aspectos de estrategia y ejecución.  Es, en última instancia, el responsable de gestionar la cartera de inversiones del ERB; supervisar la selección y el cierre de acuerdos individuales; fijar la dirección del ERB y administrar en forma dinámica las relaciones con el Gobierno federal, estatal y local y con el público. El señor Carpen es un profesional con experiencia bancaria con trayectoria internacional y conocimientos en préstamos corporativos, gestión de riesgos, reglamentaciones, gestión de cartera y tecnología para orientar las iniciativas empresariales y toma de decisiones.  El señor Carpen ha regresado a New Jersey desde Singapur, donde trabajó para el Banco de Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd., como Director General Adjunto, Jefe de Cartera de Riesgo y Estrategia.  El señor Carpen obtuvo su licenciatura en informática y ciencias de la información y una maestría en economía en la Rutgers University y una maestría en matemáticas financieras en la Universidad de Columbia, en New York.

Thomas N. Walker, P.E., CCP, de Howell, New Jersey, ha sido nombrado director adjunto del ERB.  El director adjunto está al mando de la política y las operaciones internas del ERB y actúa como segundo en línea de la organización.  El señor Walker trabaja actualmente con el BPU como el jefe de la Oficina de Servicios de Ingeniería en la División de Energía, en donde es el principal responsable de la gestión de personal de ingeniería en materia eléctrica y energía.  Además, sus responsabilidades incluyen la participación y seguimiento de asuntos de la Comisión Federal Reguladora de la Energía (FERC, en inglés) y la PJM. El señor Walker tiene más de 19 años de experiencia en el campo del gas natural e industrias eléctricas; ha trabajado directamente para varias empresas de servicios públicos, así como empresas de consultoría. El señor Walker es ingeniero profesional en New Jersey; recibió su licenciatura en ingeniería mecánica en la Universidad de Villanova y es un profesional certificado en costos.

Assistance throughout Impacted Counties Continues

Trenton, NJ – To showcase the rebuilding of small businesses impacted by Superstorm Sandy, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA) today announced the recent award of Stronger NJ Business Grants to several Ocean City businesses, including Kelly’s Creations Salon and Spa, Ad Wraps Inc., TJ’s Ice Cream Plus, and Comfort Mechanical Corp.  To date, 36 grants have been approved in Ocean City, totaling over $1.6 million.  Statewide, more than 630 businesses have been approved for grants and loans totaling over $68.7 million.

“While I have heard from many business owners that the summer is going well, our business advisors continue to work closely with all eligible businesses to ensure grant applicants get the help they need,” said EDA CEO Michele Brown.

To ease the burden on applicants still in need of assistance, the EDA hosted a Documentation Day yesterday at Staples in Brick, during which applicants could have any additional documentation needed for their applications copied, free of charge, courtesy of Staples.

“The time and cost associated with submitting required documentation has been challenging for many applicants. Documentation Day was created to make the process of submitting required documentation easier,” Brown said.

At today’s Board meeting, the EDA also announced loans to several businesses to support their recovery.

Three loans totaling $5.5 million were approved for two related Bayonne-based entities. DC Plastic Products Corp., a manufacturer and provider of plastic trash bags, was approved for a $1.2 million working capital loan and a $3.8 million construction loan.  A $500,000 EDA direct loan was approved for Superior Manufacturing Property Management, LLC, the real estate holding company for DC Plastic.  The woman-owned business suffered severe damage to its building and machinery during the storm, limiting its manufacturing capacity.

Loans for Providence Seashore House, LLC, the real estate holding company for an affiliated company, Providence Pediatric Medical Daycare, were approved in the amounts of $271,480 for working capital and $444,736 for construction.  Providence Pediatric Medical Daycare was previously approved for a $1.7 million Stronger NJ Business Loan for working capital.  The woman-owned company is headquartered in West Berlin, and experienced wind and water damage at its Atlantic City-based pediatric medical daycare facility. 

Additional Stronger NJ Business Loans totaling over $2.6 million were approved for working capital for businesses in several impacted communities, including 29 Beach Rd. LLC in Monmouth Beach, FJS Foods in Manasquan, Lakewood Candies in Lakewood, Long Key Marina in Ocean Township, Opirhory Real Estate Inc. in Garfield City, Reilly Bonner Funeral Home in Belmar, and Stesor Enterprises, Inc. in Bridgewater Township.

Since early May, EDA has hosted thirteen workshops in some of the hardest hit communities, including one today in Ocean City.  Applicants are contacted via telephone prior to the workshops to schedule appointments and are informed of any documentation or information needed to complete their application.  Through these workshops, one-on-one assistance has been provided to nearly 100 businesses.

The Stronger NJ programs are funded through New Jersey’s Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) allocation from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).  Similar to other Sandy relief programs, there are strict federal eligibility requirements to which the EDA and applicants must comply.

Trenton, NJ – To showcase the rebuilding of small businesses impacted by Superstorm Sandy, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority’s (EDA) Chief Executive Officer Michele Brown delivered a Stronger NJ Business Grant check to Southside Marina in Pt. Pleasant yesterday.  Southside is among the most recent of the more than 250 storm-impacted businesses to receive a portion of the over $27 million in grant and/or loan assistance provided in Ocean County to date.  Across the state, over 580 impacted businesses have been approved for grants and loans totaling over $61.4 million.

Peggy Fischer of Southside Marina encourages business owners to stick with the application process.  “There was a lot of paperwork required, but our Business Advisor was very helpful and supportive.  It required some work, but this grant will provide some relief from the stress caused by the financial gap the storm created.  I hope other business owners will stick with it, as the community will be so much stronger when we’re all back on our feet.”

“The EDA continues to look for ways to help Stronger NJ applications in our pipeline move forward,” said EDA CEO Michele Brown.  “We have heard from applicants that a key challenge has been the time and cost associated with submitting required documentation. To this end, we hosted an event at Staples in Brick yesterday, during which applicants were able to have the remaining documents needed for their applications copied and submitted free of charge.”

Since early May, EDA has hosted nine workshops in some of the hardest hit communities to help expedite the process and ensure that additional burdens are not placed on the businesses. Applicants are contacted via telephone prior to the workshops to schedule appointments and are informed of any documentation or information needed to complete their application.  Through these workshops, one-on-one assistance has been provided to over 75 businesses.

Additionally, the EDA has recommended the approval of eleven municipalities for Streetscape grants totaling $10 million under the Stronger NJ Neighborhood and Community Revitalization (NCR) program.  Also under NCR, the EDA has provided $2.5 million in grants to five Community Development Financial Institutions offering recovery loans to Sandy-impacted small businesses.

At last Tuesday’s Board meeting, the EDA presented seven projects totaling $26 million that were selected to advance to the next phase of the approval process under the Development and Public Improvement (D&I) component of the NCR program, including Atlantic City (two projects), Jersey City, Tuckerton, Little Ferry, Newark, and Perth Amboy. The NCR Program included $52.5 million to help advance D&I projects with grants and/or loans, up to a maximum of $10 million per project.  Under this program, $5 million was approved for Seaside Park and Seaside Boro for demolition and debris removal following the devastating September 2013 boardwalk fire, leaving $47.5 million for other D&I projects.

The Stronger NJ programs are funded through New Jersey’s Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) allocation from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).  Similar to other Sandy relief grant programs, there are strict federal eligibility requirements to which the EDA and applicants must comply.

Trenton, NJ – To showcase the rebuilding of small businesses impacted by Superstorm Sandy, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority’s (EDA) Chief Executive Officer Michele Brown visited Stronger NJ Business grant recipients on Long Beach Island (LBI) yesterday.  These visits included delivering a check to Hurley’s Inn in Holgate, and checking on the progress of two other grant awardees, Alison’s Wonderland in Beach Haven and Surf City-based Fisheads. To date, over 90 businesses on LBI have been awarded Stronger NJ Business Grants and Loans totaling over $4.4 million.

“I am encouraged by the conversations I had with business owners today, as they expressed their optimism at being better positioned to take advantage of the 2014 tourist season,” said EDA CEO Michele Brown.  “The EDA continues to work hard to get help to all eligible businesses.”  

Marianne Hurley and her husband Mike, owners of Hurley’s Inn, had to renovate the entire first floor of their 10-room motel, located just 75 feet from the beach, after storm surge from Sandy overtook their building. “We were completely overwhelmed when we saw the damage from the storm,” said Hurley.  “We are so relieved to put this experience behind us and look forward to seeing many new faces this summer.”


Carol Townsley, owner of Fisheads in Surf City, which offers clothing, jewelry, home décor and unique gifts, said, “Local businesses seem to be in  better shape than last year, and there are more of them.   People are ready for this summer after the rough winter.”

 

EDA business advisors were in Surf City today for one-on-one meetings with local Stronger NJ applicants to assist with the completion of their applications. According to Brown, the goal of these workshops is to help expedite the process and ensure that additional burdens are not placed on the businesses.

 

Applicants are contacted via telephone prior to the workshops to schedule appointments and are informed of any documentation or information needed to complete their application.  Since May 6th, workshops have been held in Seaside Heights, Beach Haven, Sea Bright, Ocean City, Atlantic City, Manasquan, Moonachie, Lavallette, and Surf City, with assistance provided to over 70 businesses. Additional workshops are being scheduled in towns where a need is identified.

 

Alison Bartolo of Alison’s Wonderland is encouraged by the activity she has seen since Memorial Day.  “People are excited to be getting back to the beach.  We have all been through so much, but I am grateful for the support of the Beach Haven community, my family and the state.”

 

To date, over 560 impacted businesses in New Jersey have been approved for grants and loans totaling over $60.3 million.

 

Additionally, the EDA has recommended the approval of eleven municipalities for Streetscape grants totaling $10 million under the Stronger NJ Neighborhood and Community Revitalization (NCR) program, including a grant for South Toms River.  Also under NCR, the EDA has provided $2.5 million in grants to five Community Development Financial Institutions offering recovery loans to Sandy-impacted small businesses.

Trenton, NJ (June 10, 2014) – Continuing Governor Christie’s commitment to the recovery of businesses and communities in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA) today approved loans totaling over $7.4 million for storm-impacted businesses, and also announced that seven applicants were selected to advance under the Development and Public Improvement (D&I) component of the Neighborhood and Community Revitalization (NCR) Program. 

 

“With the official start of summer fast approaching, we are doing all we can to get assistance to our recovering businesses and communities,” said EDA Chief Executive Officer Michele Brown.  “As I visit with impacted business owners across the state, and particularly along the shore, I remain confident that 2014 will be a great season for all.” 

 

Brown said that the Music Man Singing Ice Cream Shoppe in Lavallette epitomizes the resilience and determination that has defined New Jersey’s business community following the storm. 

 

Located in Lavallette since 2003, the Shoppe was surrounded by over four feet of water following the storm. In addition to losing all of its inventory and equipment, the interior of the building had to be renovated.  The Music Man received a Stronger NJ Business grant and working capital loan to support its recovery, as well as its expansion to a second location on the Seaside Heights boardwalk.  The Music Man officially opened its doors in Seaside on Saturday.

 

“After enduring the storm and the challenges that came along with it, we are thrilled to be able to open a second location on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights,” said owner Josephine Sessa-Agliata.  “To see Lavallette and Seaside both bounce back has been an inspiration and we look forward to a busy summer serving residents and tourists in both communities.”

 

Other Stronger NJ Business loans were approved for OptiJob, Inc., a Bay Head-based company that helps employers utilize search engines, social media networks, blogs and mobile devices to attract and hire prospective employees; Wehrlen Brothers Marina, a Brick-based business providing various boat services, including repair, maintenance and winter storage; Kohr’s Frozen Custard The Original in Seaside Heights; Sea Bright-based Northshore Menswear and Womenswear, which offers classic tailored clothing, furnishings, sportswear and shoes; and, Riverside Marina & Yacht Sales, a full service marina in Riverside.

 

The EDA also presented seven projects that were selected to advance to the next phase of the approval process under the D&I component of the NCR Program.  Comprised of three funding components, the NCR Program included $52.5 million to help advance D&I projects with grants and/or loans, up to a maximum of $10 million per project.  Under this program, $5 million was approved for Seaside Park and Seaside Boro for demolition and debris removal following the devastating September 2013 boardwalk fire, leaving $47.5 million for other D&I projects.

 

In February 2014, the EDA approved an objective review and scoring process to determine project approvals and funding levels.  Through this process, priority was given to applications from low-to-moderate income areas that were submitted during the initial six-week application period.  Projects were required to fall under at least one of four categories: Catalytic; Transformative Neighborhood; Innovation; or, Recreational, Cultural and Park Land Amenities.  

 

The seven recommended projects will now move on to federally required environmental and historic preservation reviews by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection to ensure compliance with applicable federal laws and regulations. Projects include:

 

  • Mansion Avenue Drainage Improvements, Atlantic City – advance a system of storm water runoff improvements, including new piping, pumps and drainage structures;
  • Atlantic City Boardwalk, Atlantic City – replace a portion of the Boardwalk from Rhode Island Avenue to Historic Gardner’s Basin;
  • Berry Lane Park, Jersey City – transform over 17 acres of brownfields into one of the largest municipally owned parks;
  • Borough of Tuckerton, Tuckerton – purchase, renovate and utilize an unoccupied building as the new Municipal Complex;
  • Borough of Little Ferry, Lakeview Field, Little Ferry – make various improvements to Lakeview Field, including turfing, lighting and fence replacement;
  • Newark Housing Authority, Training Recreation Education Center (TREC), Newark – advance construction of the TREC, which will include an educational/resource wing, as well as a fitness center, meeting space and media center; and,
  • City of Perth Amboy, Perth Amboy – implement improvements to the waterfront areas of the city, including fishing piers and a recreational trail.

Over 540 Businesses in Impacted Counties Assisted by Stronger NJ Business Programs to Date

Trenton, NJ – To showcase the rebuilding of small businesses impacted by Superstorm Sandy, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority’s (EDA) Chief Executive Officer Michele Brown delivered a check today to Marlin’s Café, a Stronger NJ Business Grant recipient in Point Pleasant.  She also visited Driftwood Motel, another grant recipient, and Susan Wagner Designs, which was recently approved for a Stronger NJ Business Loan, both also in Point Pleasant.  

“EDA staff continues to work closely with grant and loan applicants to make sure eligible businesses are getting the help they need,” Brown said.  “We approved an average 25 grants a week in May and expect this momentum to continue.”

 

To date, over 230 Ocean County businesses have been awarded grants and loans totaling over $23 million.

 

Marlin’s Café experienced considerable damage from the storm, but still managed to host several fundraising events featuring local bands to support families displaced by Sandy. “It was wonderful to see the community come together very quickly after the storm to help each other out,” said Diane McKenna, who owns Marlin’s with her husband Andrew. “We are proud to be part of such a supportive community and are excited to see so many businesses and families back in town.”

 

The seawall outside Driftwood Motel was destroyed by Superstorm Sandy, resulting in the flooding of 18 rooms on the motel’s first level, shattering windows, damaging walls and floors, and destroying furniture.  Owner Sam Ippolito said, “We are happy to put Sandy behind us and are hoping for a very busy summer.  The help we have received from the State will help to keep things running until the summer tourist season fully kicks in.”

 

EDA business advisors have been meeting one-on-one with Stronger NJ applicants at workshops in impacted communities to assist with the completion of their applications. According to Brown, the goal of these workshops is to help expedite the process and ensure that additional burdens are not placed on the businesses.

 

Applicants are contacted via telephone prior to the workshops to schedule appointments and are informed of any documentation or information needed to complete their application.  Since May 6th, workshops have been held in Seaside Heights, Beach Haven, Sea Bright, Ocean City, Atlantic City, Manasquan, Moonachie, and Lavallette, with assistance provided to over 70 businesses. Additional workshops are being scheduled in towns where a need is identified.

 

Over 540 impacted businesses in New Jersey have been approved for grants and loans totaling $58 million.   Additionally, the EDA has recommended the approval of eleven municipalities for Streetscape grants totaling $10 million under the Stronger NJ Neighborhood and Community Revitalization (NCR) program, including a grant for South Toms River.  Also under NCR, the EDA has provided $2.5 million in grants to five Community Development Financial Institutions offering recovery loans to Sandy-impacted small businesses, and $5 million to Seaside Heights and Seaside Park for boardwalk demolition and debris removal.
