Low-Income Home Water Assistance Program (LIHWAP) Contractor Application and Contract
08/03/2021
A temporary emergency Low-Income Home Water Assistance Program
1
(LIHWAP) is being
developed to provide low-income households assistance in paying their water and wastewater
bills. Funds will be sent directly to Public Water System (PWS) operators to be credited to
income-eligible household accounts to reduce arrearages, prevent shutoffs and reduce monthly
rates. This program is slated to operate from October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2023.
Households will apply for assistance through a process coordinated with the Low-Income
Energy Assistance (LIEAP) program. For more information,
