1. I understand, acknowledge, and agree to the following Terms & Conditions, which form a part of the application form for my participation in the K-12 Public Schools Program (K12PSP).
2. I understand the Program is available to all eligible Southern California Gas Company commercial customers that hold an active service account with an active SoCalGas meter and service address located within San Bernardino County, Orange County and Riverside County.
3. I understand that the installation of the Equipment may require Okapi Architecture, Inc. (“OKAPI”) and/or its subcontractors to enter my facility. I agree to permit OKAPI and its authorized subcontractors to complete an energy survey and install the Equipment at my facility, as applicable. I understand the Program, including the application requirements, as well as individual energy efficiency products, measures, or “Equipment” offered as part of this Program, may be modified, or terminated at any time without prior notice.
4. I understand the Program including these Terms and Conditions may be revised any time without notice. In such an instance, unless otherwise prohibited under applicable law (including CPUC order or directive), signed applications will be processed to completion under the Terms and Conditions in effect of the date of such signed application.
5. I will allow, if requested, a representative from SoCalGas, OKAPI, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and/or any authorized third-party reasonable access to the property where the Equipment is located to verify the installed Equipment. I understand that SoCalGas, OKAPI, CPUC and/or any authorized third party may contact the qualifying Equipment vendor and/or installer to verify purchase and/or installation of the Equipment and may provide my name and/or address to complete this verification. I understand this inspection is for the purpose of determining that the installed Equipment meets all Program requirements. I understand that applications that are submitted to SoCalGas may be randomly selected for inspection to ensure Program and quality control compliance, and that a virtual video inspection may be requested to verify the installation of the Equipment. I understand the Program may end sooner than 12/31/2025 if allocated funds are depleted. Equipment purchases and installations made prior to or after this specified term do not qualify for a rebate(s), incentive(s), and/or service(s) are determined by the date the application is received.
6. I have not received a rebate(s), incentive(s), and/or service(s) for the same Equipment from any other California Investor-Owned Utility (IOU), states or local third-party energy efficiency program funded by the Public Purpose Program Surcharge (PPPS). I cannot receive a rebate(s), incentive(s), and/or service(s) for the same Equipment from more than one California IOU participating in the Program or any other third-party programs offering rebates, financing, and/or other incentives funded by the CPUC. I understand that I cannot receive a rebate(s), incentive(s), and/or service(s) for any Equipment for which I have received a rebate(s), incentive(s) and/or service(s) from SoCalGas within five (5) years prior to the application date. Equipment receiving a SoCalGas rebate(s) or incentive(s) at the point-of-sale, as an instant markdown, through a Regional Energy Network or Home Upgrade Program, or through a manufacturer/distributor, do not qualify for a mail-in or online rebate(s), incentive(s), and/or service(s). 
7. I certify the installed qualifying Equipment in accordance with all applicable federal, state, county, city and local laws, rules, and regulations, including building codes, homeowner’s association (if applicable), manufacturer’s specifications, and permitting requirements, and understand the energy-efficiency level of the qualifying Equipment (as defined in the specification sheet) determines the rebate(s) and/or incentive(s) amount. If a contractor performed the installation or improvement, the contractor holds the appropriate license for the work performed.
8. I understand rebate(s), incentive(s) and/or service(s) payments are based on related energy benefits over the life of the Equipment.

12. I understand all Projects are subject to evaluation studies of Equipment by and/or Program measurement by external contractors appointed by the CPUC. These studies are used to analyze and improve Program performance. I agree to participate by responding to inquiries from these contractors in a timely manner.
