(a) Any person, as defined in § 6002 of Title 7, or persons, jointly or severally, or any taxpayer, or any officer, department, board or bureau of the State, or the Delaware River and Bay Authority, may appeal to the Superior Court in and for the county in which the proposed project in question is wholly or principally located by filing a petition, duly verified, setting forth that such decision of the Board is illegal in whole or in part, specifying the grounds of the illegality. Any such appeal shall be perfected within 20 days of the decision of the Board. (b) The Court may affirm, reverse or modify the Board's decision. The Board's findings of fact shall not be set aside unless the Court determines that the record contains no substantial evidence that would reasonably support the findings. If the Court finds that additional evidence should be taken, the Court may remand the case to the Board for completion of the record. (c) No appeal shall operate to stay automatically the effect of any determination by the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, but upon application, and for good cause, the Board or the Court of Chancery may stay the action pending disposition of the appeal.
