1. The Customer sends the following materials to the Program Manager – TRC Energy Services, 900 Route 9 North, Suite 404, Woodbridge, NJ 07095:

• Application Form including Worksheets where applicable (dated, completed and signed)
• Manufacturer's technical data sheet(s) based on the project's specified equipment manufacturer model number(s)
• Recent full copies of electric and natural gas utility bill(s) for the facility
• W-9 tax form, unless tax-exempt (dated, completed and signed)
• For custom projects, please refer to the Custom Electric/Gas application for more details on submission requirements.

2. The Program Manager has the option of pre-inspecting the existing facility.

3. If all paperwork received is in order, the Program Manager sends a Letter of Approval to the Customer. This letter will include the pre-determined timeframe required to complete the installation and submit final "as-built" documentation.

4. To receive an incentive, the Customer must not install the proposed new equipment or disconnect the existing equipment before receiving the Letter of Approval from the Program Manager. This pre-approval requirement may be waived for HVAC equipment and motors when total incentives per application are less than $5,000.

5. Before the pre-approved timeframe expires, the Customer submits proof of installation including:

• Itemized invoice with breakdown of equipment costs
• Final "as-built" application indicating any changes from the original application
• NJ tax clearance certificate (dated and completed)

Note: If additional time is required to complete the project, the Customer must request a time extension in writing, explaining the reason for the extension request. If an extension is granted, a new Letter of Approval will be issued and the incentive amount will be based on the current incentive schedule, which may be different from the schedule in effect when the original application was approved.

6. The Program Manager has the option of inspecting the completed installation.

7. The Program Manager issues the incentive check, typically within 60 days of receipt of all necessary proof of installation documentation from the Customer and completion of the final inspection (if selected for inspection).
