Conserve to Preserve Community Rewards
Program Rules and Agreement

Here is an overview of the structure and rules associated with the New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) Conserve to Preserve (CTP) Community Rewards program. For further questions not addressed here, please contact Maureen Flumerfelt at 732-378-4926 or mflumerfelt@njng.com.

General Eligibility to Participate

  1. Interested schools are required to review all program rules and document their acceptance of and agreement to adhere to the program rules by completing this CTP Community Rewards Program Rules and Agreement document. It should be submitted to Maureen Flumerfelt via e-mail at mflumerfelt@njng.com or by fax at 732-378-4935. Schools will be notified of the receipt of this Agreement.
  2. Only designated New Jersey schools, located within NJNG’s service territory, participating in the PowerSave Schools program are eligible to partake at this time. Under no circumstances will a for-profit entity or a group formed to benefit a specific individual be approved as a Community Rewards organization. Schools must be located within NJNG’s service territory (primarily Monmouth, Ocean, and Morris counties).
  3. NJNG reserves the right to modify or eliminate the program at any time. Should the program be modified, NJNG shall notify any schools participating in Community Rewards at that time. Schools shall be entitled to any Rewards earned during the period the program was in effect. NJNG reserves the right to limit the number of organizations that can participate in any enrollment period.

Program Timeline

The schedule is as follows:

  1. Participation agreements will be provided at Powersave Kickoff meetings.
  2. Interested schools can submit completed participation agreements to NJNG immediately thereafter.
  3. Organizations can begin planning to promote the program to its members and supporting community immediately upon receipt of marketing materials from NJNG, but the official reward period for referrals will run from October 1, 2016 to April 30, 2017.
  4. Participating schools will receive templates for supporting materials for the school’s campaign including sample participant flyers, promotional flyers and approved texts for e-mails or social media postings. However, schools are not permitted to send unsolicited e-mails or “spam.” Sending e-mails without permission or otherwise in violation of the CAN-SPAM Act is strictly prohibited. Please note you should only send e-mails to individuals who: (1) have affirmatively opted-in to the e-mail list you are using, or (2) have a prior relationship with an organization and have given them a clear notice of their right to, and a user-friendly ability to, opt-out of any future e-mail communication.

Earning Rewards for CTP Dashboard Activity

  1. In order for schools to receive a $5 credit for encouraging an NJNG residential customer to try the new CTP Dashboard service, the participating customer must type in the referring school’s name in the final screen of the profile. Participants are encouraged but not required to include NJNG account number.
  2. Participating customers must be at least 18 years of age to participate. The school will receive referral credit for only one (1) referral per eligible residential customer household. For purposes of the CTP Community Rewards program, “residential customer household” shall mean all persons residing at, or claiming as their principal residence, any single occupancy dwelling or unit in a multiple story dwelling with an active NJNG account.
  3. NJNG will reward each school $5 per documented customer who includes the full school name as referral code on that final profile screen.

Additional Terms

  1. The maximum reward that any school can receive is $1,000.
  2. NJNG will provide each school with an update regarding its referral activity on a monthly basis through April 2107. This update will include a count of participants and names of participants but no account numbers, payment information or usage information will be shared back with the organization. Participants will essentially be opting in to have their names released back to the organization by entering the school name in the rewards field.
  3. The school can only earn rewards during the specified reward period. The school will not earn any rewards for referrals either before or after that period.
  4. Please note that the CTP Dashboard is designed to assist only residential customers, not industrial or commercial customers. Therefore, neither industrial nor commercial customers will be eligible to be included as a referral customer for this program.
  5. The CTP Dashboard reward payment will be paid to the school within 60 days of the close of the reward period.
  6. NJNG undertakes no liability, and makes no warranties, express or implied, for any damages relating to, or arising out of, the CTP Community Rewards Program.
  7. Any dispute or controversy arising out of or in connection with the administration of the CTP Community Rewards program shall be resolved by the management of NJNG, whose decisions are final and binding.
  8. NJNG reserves the right to make changes in the CTP Community Rewards program rules at any time, which changes will become effective upon announcement.
  9. Failure to conform to all program rules will result in the disqualification of the organization.
