Safety Grant Return History†
†Safety grants may be approved by NJSIG's Board of Trustees when NJSIG's change in net position is more than NJSIG's non-operating revenue. This typically occurs in the fall and is based on the policy year that just ended. (ex. NJSIG's net position is more than its non-operating revenue for the 2020/2021 policy, NJSIG's board may approve a safety grant in the fall of 2021 during the 2021/2022 policy year but is actually dispersed to the membership in the fall of 2022, which would be considered as the 2022/2023 policy year.)
