Registration Overview
Participation in Sustainable Jersey is FREE and voluntary
Sustainable Jersey is a nonprofit organization and participation in the program is not mandated by the state of New Jersey.
To become a Sustainable Jersey Certified municipality, the municipality must first be registered with the program. Registering does not commit a municipality to attain certification. Only municipalities or organizations formally designated to represent the municipality may register.
Pass a Resolution to Participate
In order for a municipality to join the Sustainable Jersey program the municipality will need to pass a resolution stating its intent to seek Sustainable Jersey certification and designate an entity to be in charge of the process. Please note this resolution is not the same as the Green Team resolution required for certification.
