LIHWAP Assistance
LIHWAP stands for the Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program. It is a federally funded program that offers a one-time payment, up to a maximum of $15,000, to help you pay your current or past-due water and/or wastewater bills that accrued during any timeframe.
LIHWAP assistance is provided in the form of a credit on your water bill. Credits are paid out directly to the water companies.
