N.J. Admin. Code § 10:87-1.6 - The concept of reasonable certainty; situations not covered by the manual

(a) While this manual attempts to minimize discretionary action on the part of the certification worker, there will be situations which are not specifically covered by existing policy guidelines. In those cases the certification worker shall be expected to make a judgment, based on his or her experience and/or knowledge of the Program, which can be defended as both reasonable and prudent.

(b) In cases where the treatment of a situation is neither specifically nor generally addressed in this manual, the matter shall be referred to DFD for resolution.
