     SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE

                    STATEMENT TO

                  SENATE, No. 2996
                   with committee amendments



 STATE OF NEW JERSEY
                   DATED: DECEMBER 14, 2020

   The Senate Commerce Committee reports favorably and with
committee amendments Senate Bill No. 2996.
   This bill allows licensees of the New Jersey State Board of
Cosmetology and Hairstyling to provide services using mobile
facilities.
   The bill amends the definition of “shop” in the statute governing
the New Jersey State Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling to
include mobile facilities. The bill adds a definition of “mobile
facility” to mean a licensed shop capable of being moved from one
place to another as or by a motor vehicle that shall be properly
registered, insured and inspected in accordance with all applicable
motor vehicle laws and regulations and in compliance with all
appropriate municipal land use approvals and permits, if applicable.
   The bill further supplements the law to allow practicing licensees
to render any cosmetology and hairstyling services in a mobile
facility so long as certain requirements are met. A mobile facility is
to display a permanent sign indicating the name of the shop, which
is clearly visible to the general public from the exterior of the shop,
and contain:
   (1) a minimum of 75 square feet of floor space;
   (2) at least one lavatory including a toilet, hand washing facilities
and a door;
   (3) one shampoo basin with hot and cold running water and a
reclining chair;
   (4) a designated area for cleaning and disinfecting implements
and tools;
   (5) an ultrasonic unit for cleaning metal implements and tools;
   (6) a clean, closed receptacle for storage of sanitized implements
and tools at each work station;
   (7) a closed container for clean linens;
   (8) a closed container for soiled linens;
   (9) a closed waste container accessible to each work station;
   (10) hair drying facilities or hair drying equipment;
   (11) a dispensary or place where supplies are prepared and
dispensed; and
                                 2

   (12) any other equipment as is necessary to provide those
services offered by the shop in a safe and sanitary manner.
   Under the bill, a mobile facility licensed as a manicuring or skin
care specialty shop by the board is required to have at least one sink
in the work area with hot and cold running water but is exempt from
the requirement for a shampoo basin. In addition, a mobile facility
licensed as a barbering shop is required to contain at least one chair
with an adjustable headrest suitable for performing shaving services.
   The bill provides that a shop that is a mobile facility is required to
provide to the board a 14-day location schedule at least 14 days in
advance of the first scheduled date and to immediately notify the
board of any change to that schedule.
   Under the bill, a mobile facility is to maintain a stationary position
whenever an individual therein is engaged in one or more of the
practices included in the definition of cosmetology and hairstyling,
barbering, beauty culture, manicuring, hair braiding or skin care
specialty.
   The bill also amends the law to replace certain outdated
terminology.

COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS:
   The committee amended the bill to prohibit mobile facilities from
operating within 300 feet of a Board-licensed shop unless the mobile
facility is:
   1) parked outside the home of a customer receiving services;
   2) lawfully participating in an event, including, but not limited to,
a municipal or county function; or
   3) affiliated with the licensed shop.
