Federal and state agencies allege that historic PSEG operations and those of other companies discharged substantial contamination into New Jersey’s Newark Bay Complex in violation of environmental statutes. The EPA has designated portions of the complex as Superfund sites requiring investigation and remediation under CERCLA. PSEG Power also retained liabilities from the sale of its fossil-generation portfolio, primarily for investigating and remediating sites under New Jersey and Connecticut laws; the company says remediation costs and penalties could be material.

Key facts

• PSEG is subject to potential material costs and penalties for remediation of contaminated properties and may face additional proceedings concerning hazardous substance discharges.
• PSEG reduced reported methane emissions by over 34% system-wide from 2018 through 2025.
