Household Water Well System Grant Program: The Household Water Well System (HWWS) Grant Program provides grants to qualified private non-profit organizations to establish lending programs for household water wells. Homeowners or eligible individuals may borrow money from an approved organization to construct or upgrade their private well systems. Individuals cannot receive grants. They must apply for loans through non-profit organizations that USDA Rural Development has approved to receive grant funds. The loan limit is $11,000 at 1 percent for 20 years. Application forms will be provided by the organization. The USDA Rural Development will award grant funds to qualified private, non-profit organizations only. The approved organizations must set up a revolving loan program and provide low-interest loans to eligible individuals who own or will own a private well system. The loans may be used to construct, refurbish, and service an individual's well system. The non-profit organizations applying for the grant funds must contribute at least 10 percent of the HWWS grant to capitalize the revolving loan fund. The cost-sharing funds may be contributed from the applicants' own resources or sources other than the proceeds of the HWWS grants. In-kind contributions will not be considered.
