Attention, residents! More information about the upcoming PFAS Removal Rebate Program has been shared by NHDES (Department of Environmental Sciences). Here are some of the relevant details, but please click the link below for additional information!
- The NHDES will provide a one-time rebate of up to $1,500 per residential unit to assist eligible private residential well users in the purchase and installation of a treatment system designed to remove PFAS (POU or POET) or connecting to an existing public water system.
- Funding for the rebate program was recently established and the program is still in development. It is anticipated that the program will be accepting applications in two to three months.
- The program is retroactive back to September 30, 2019. You do not have to wait for the program to be live to act.
- If the NHDES sampled your well, an email or letter will be sent out to you indicating that the program is accepting applications. If you sampled your well yourself or hired someone else to sample your well, please email pfasrebateprogram@des.nh.gov requesting to be added to a list to be notified when the program is accepting applications.
