(a) Once funds for the project have been appropriated for a construction project funded by a historic preservation construction grant of $ 50,000 or more, a sign acknowledging that the project is funded with grant assistance from the New Jersey Historic Preservation Grant Program administered by the New Jersey Historic Trust "in but not of" the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey, must be located prominently and maintained on the project site.

(b) The project sign shall be fabricated and erected by the grant recipient in accord with specifications contained in the project agreement.

(c) The cost of making and erecting the project sign is eligible for funding under N.J.A.C. 5:100-2. The cost of replacing or maintaining the sign is not eligible for funding.

(d) The project sign shall remain prominently located and maintained in the project site until the project is administratively closed out by the staff of the New Jersey Historic Trust.

(e) Upon completion of the construction project receiving a grant of $ 50,000 or more and/or at any time prior, grantee shall affix a permanent sign or plaque to property noting that the property is listed in the New Jersey or National Register of Historic Places, giving the year listed and the name of the property as listed in the records of the Register and describing the historical significance of the property.

(f) As applicable for New Jersey Historic Trust funding of construction activities, the year preservation work was completed shall be acknowledged on the sign and/or plaque. The language used when crediting the New Jersey Historic Trust shall read as follows: "Funding has been made possible in part by the New Jersey Historic Trust/State of New Jersey."

(g) Credit shall be given to the Trust and State of New Jersey in all printed materials, releases and announcement of the grantee regarding all activities to which the Trust funds contributed; this applies to all promotional appearances on television and radio by representatives of the grantee organization as well as newspaper interviews. In the case of electronic media, verbal credit shall be given at least once during a broadcast to acknowledge the support the grantee has received from the Trust to its overall operation.

(h) The Trust logo shall be used by the grantee in publicizing those programs or documents supported by a Trust grant (including, but not limited to, newsletters, brochures, and flyers). The logo is to be used only when the credit line stated in (f) above is also used and never in its place (as this implies sponsorship). Ideally, the logo should be reproduced as a unit without alteration.

(i) All printed materials studies or reports funded by the Trust shall acknowledge in a prominent place the assistance of the New Jersey Historic Trust, State of New Jersey.
