The permits as defined herein do not apply to occupancy of NJ TRANSIT property for other uses. All requests for permits shall be submitted, in writing, in accordance with NJ TRANSIT's Guidelines for Working within or in vicinity of NJ TRANSIT's right-of-way or applicable document in effect at the time of application, which shall govern the use of NJ TRANSIT-owned property for which a permit is issued. Written requests for permits shall be addressed to:

(c) Once stamped drawings have been entered into the review process, the applicant shall be responsible to the involved jurisdiction for the applicable review fees, regardless of permit completion.

(d) No refund of any fees shall be made after an application for a permit has been submitted.

(e) NJ TRANSIT will notify the applicant of its decision, which may be made in its sole and absolute discretion, regarding the issuance of a permit. If NJ TRANSIT approves the application, after being reviewed by the involved jurisdiction, a permit will be sent to the applicant for completion. It shall be the applicant's responsibility to complete the permit and return it to NJ TRANSIT with the designated fee(s).
