The EWSU Leak Repair Program is a partnership with Memorial Community Development Corporation (MCDC) to provide eligible customers with up to $1,000 in small repairs to their home water system and fixtures that can make a long-term difference in their utility bill.
Income-qualified customers who apply will have a home assessment performed to detect water leaks that may be increasing their monthly bill. If a leak is detected, eligible repairs will be made within seven (7) days. If no leak is detected, other water-saving recommendations will be provided.
Program funds will be allocated to customers based on U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) income limit guidelines in Indiana.
Customers who enroll in the Leak Repair Program and receive repair services are ineligible for the Bill Relief Program. If a customer declines the recommended work to be performed after the home assessment, and does not want to be referred or qualify for other programs, they will remain eligible to apply for the Bill Relief Program.
Applying for the EWSU Leak Repair Program is simple and easy.
Funding for the Leak Repair Program is provided by the American Rescue Plan, which provides direct relief to Americans and the economy during and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This program will leverage this funding and will be offered through the end of 2026 or until funding is depleted.
