OFFICIAL NOTICE NEW JERSEY TRANSIT CORPORATION NJAC 16:72 - New Jersey Transit Procurement Policies and Procedures Notice is given that New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ TRANSIT) proposes to reauthorize New Jersey Administrative Code Section 16:72 (NJAC 16:72), Purchasing Policies and Procedures, as amended. The rules were first adopted on June 4, 1981 and reauthorized on June 11, 2019. NJ TRANSIT has reviewed the proposed rules and has determined that the rules are necessary, adequate, reasonable, effective, understandable, and fit for the purposes for which they are being enacted, except for certain changes noted below, and therefore proposes to reauthorize the section as amended. Summary of proposed amendments to subsections of NJAC 16:72: Minor revisions were made to the document, including updating the address of NJ TRANSIT's headquarters and changing the job title from "Executive Director" to "President and CEO." Subdivision 1, General Provisions, at NJAC 16:72-1.2, is updated to define the term "negotiations." NJAC 16:72-1.5(b) is updated to provide more detailed requirements for procurement, including a request for quotations. Changes are proposed to 16:72-1.5(e) to provide justification for exceptional procurement: for required technical "services" that must be compatible with existing technology and for situations where NJ TRANSIT has the opportunity to test or evaluate an innovative concept or technology that has potential benefit to the organization. NJAC 16:72-1.5(j) also adds a reference to NJ TRANSIT's contracting regulations, which permit contracts to be entered into with public or private entities when necessary to provide public transportation. Subsections 2, Invitations for Bids (IFB), and 3, Requests for Proposals (RFP), were also amended to reflect permission to publish IFBs in electronic newspapers and to discontinue the acceptance and return of paper bids and proposals during procurement proceedings. NJAC 16:72-2.4 was revised to provide for NJ TRANSIT's right to review a contractor's prequalification status assigned by another governmental agency. NJAC 16:72-3.4 was added to allow NJ TRANSIT to waive any minor formal inconsistencies or errors in an RFP. NJAC 16:72-3.9 was also added to provide for the possibility of negotiation of the terms of the contract. N.J.A.C. 16:72-2.6 is amended to clarify language and provide N.J. TRANSIT with greater flexibility by striking the words “shall not be vacated unless vacating is in the best interests of N.J. TRANSIT” and replacing them with “may be vacated if vacating is in the best interests of N.J. TRANSIT or the public interest.” N.J.A.C. 16:72-2.6a, 2.12(a)7, 2.13(f), 3.5, 3.10(a)6, 6.3(a)2, and 6.6(a)2 are also amended to add the language “in the public interest.” N.J.A.C. 16:72-2.8 and 2.10 are amended to eliminate provisions for the return of bids to bidders in the event of a canceled invitation to bid or a late bid submission. NJAC 16:72-2.19 amended amended to add "in good faith." N.J.A.C. 16:72-2.20(a) is amended to add "or businesses owned by disabled veterans." Subsection 4, Design-Build (DB) Projects, has been revised to remove unnecessary provisions on exclusion, suspension of eligibility and disqualification of persons, which are now contained in subsection 6. Subdivision 5, Contracts for Professional Services, is amended to include provisions for professional architectural, engineering, and land surveying services consistent with the requirements of N.J.S.A. 52:34-9.5(c). Subdivision 6, Removal, Suspension, and Disqualification of Persons, is amended to include the removal, suspension, and disqualification provisions previously contained in subdivision 5. Subdivision 6 is amended by striking the reference to "the Attorney General" in N.J.A.C. 16:72-6.6(a)1 and 2 and by replacing "without the approval of the Attorney General" with "in the discretion of the President and the Director General" in N.J.A.C. 16:72-6.6(a)6. Subsection 6 is also amended to delete the language "to the extent the Attorney General deems appropriate disclosure of such reasons" from N.J.A.C. 16:72-6.7(a)1 and the provision "A copy of such exception shall be sent to the Attorney General" from N.J.A.C. 16:72-6.9. These changes reflect that such decisions are made in the best interests of NJ TRANSIT at the discretion of the President and the CEO or their designees, and not the Attorney General. Subdivision 7, Complaints, is moved from subdivision 6 and describes procedures for filing complaints regarding contracts entered into during procurement. Subdivision 7 is supplemented with the language “and NJAC 16:72” in NJAC 16:72-7.1 and with the language “virtual or telephone presentations” in NJAC 16:72-7.5(b). Copies of the proposed rules may be obtained by sending a letter to the following address: Compliance Department New Jersey Transit Corporation 283-299 Market Street 18th Floor Newark, NJ 07102 Email: [email protected] The full text of the proposed rules will be published in the New Jersey Register on August 4, 2025. The text of the proposed rules is also available on the NJ TRANSIT website at https://www.njtransit.com/resources/regulations-statute-bylaws . Comments on the new rules should be submitted in writing to the address above by October 3, 2025. Kris Kolluri President and CEO of New Jersey Transit Corporation

Thank you, Lilia, for your gift, for your sincere participation and desire to help.
I want to thank Lilia from the bottom of my heart for her incredible help and support during one of the most difficult periods of my life. When it seemed like all was lost, and my loved one had left, leaving behind only pain and emptiness, Lilia became the light that helped me not give up and believe in the best. Thanks to her wise advice, sensitivity, support, and keen understanding of human emotions, I was able to change myself, rethink my relationship, and understand where we both went wrong. Lilia helped me not only bring my loved one back into the family but also build a completely new, deeper, and more sincere connection with him. Today we are together, and I feel a harmony and love I could only dream of before. Thank you, Lilia, for your gift, your sincere concern, and your desire to help. You are more than just a specialist—you are a person with a big heart. May your kindness and talent return to you a hundredfold!

I can't forget that evening. He came with a cold face, didn't even look up: "Dasha, I don't want to be with you anymore. I've decided everything." 3 years together. We talked about children, about a house outside the city, about the future. I thought we were "the ones". But he packed his things and left. And didn't look back. I lay on the floor and howled. It seemed to me that I had died, only my body remained. Everything inside burned. A week later, I found out that he was with another. And then I simply stopped being myself. Nothing helped. Neither conversations nor advice. Everyone said: "Forget, let go." But how can you forget someone you feel with every cell? I came across Lilia by chance. Or was it fate... She looked at my photo and said: "He didn't just leave. He's lost his way. But if you want, I'll help you bring him back." It was scary. But I agreed. Because there was nothing left to lose. We performed 3 rituals. We prayed. I followed every detail. I was afraid of making a mistake. And then one day he wrote. At first simply: "How are you?" Then: "I dream of you every night." And then he came. He stood on the threshold, as if lost: "I don't understand what happened. As if I woke up. Bring me back." And I did. With Lilia's help. We are together again. He doesn't let go of my hand for a second. He says that he won't make such a mistake a second time. Lilia, you are not just a clairvoyant. You saved my soul. Thank you for everything.
