9. a. The division shall, at regular intervals, remove from the longshoremen's register any person who shall have been registered for at least nine months and who shall have failed during the preceding six calendar months either to have worked as a longshoreman in the port of New York district in this State or to have applied for employment as a longshoreman at an employment information center established under section 16 of P.L.2017, c.324 (C.53:2-21) for the minimum number of days as shall have been established by the division pursuant to subsection b. of this section.
b. On or before the first day of June following the date on which P.L.2017, c.324 (C.32:23-229 et al.) becomes operative, and on or before each succeeding first day of June or December, the division shall, for the purposes of P.L.2017, c.324 (C.32:23-229 et al.), establish for the six-month period beginning on each date a minimum number of days and the distribution of the days during that period.
