However, due to the demand for the Program and limited funds for projects, offers will be limited to a maximum of two grants, of not more than $45,000 each, per eligible waterworks owner per funding year. Multiple applications from one owner must be for different areas of a waterworks\u2019 infrastructure (e.g. source, treatment, distribution, security, etc.) or for a completely different waterworks (i.e., a waterworks with a different PWSID #). VDH reserves the right to fund a project received at any time during the year, or to by-pass any project for lack of progress at any time. VDH also reserves the right to decide if funding is contingent upon adjusting water rates and\/or requiring savings for financial reserves.
