Low Income Household Water Assistance Program (LIHWAP)

LIHWAP offers a one-time payment to qualifying low-income households to help pay current and past due water or sewer bills. There is no date restriction for when the overdue amount occurred. The size of a benefit varies depending on the past due balance of the household’s residential water and sewer bills. Households that qualify could reduce their water and/or sewer charges by up to $15,000.

How do I apply?

Households can apply for LIHWAP assistance through the local LIHWAP service provider, North Coast Energy Services. Applications must be returned directly to the service provider.
