LIHWAP is a temporary emergency program that will help eligible households and
families afford water and wastewater services, providing a one-time payment for eligible
low-income households paid directly to the utility company. LIHWAP runs through
September 2023 or until the funds are exhausted.
How Do I Know if I Qualify for LIHWAP?
If your water or wastewater services have been cut off or if you have received notice
that your services are in danger of being cut off because your bill is past due, or you
simply need help paying your water bill, you may be eligible!
Who is eligible to receive LIHWAP?
To be eligible for the LIHWAP program, a household must have at least one U.S. citizen
or eligible legal permanent resident and:
• Have income equal to or less than 150% of the federal poverty level,
• Have water or wastewater services that are disconnected, in jeopardy of being
disconnected or have a current outstanding bill, and
• Is responsible for paying the water bill.
