PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY RAIN CHECK REBATE
Howard EcoWorks is proud to announce that we are now certified contractors for Prince George's County's Rain Check Rebate Program.
What this funds: Seven types of stormwater practices are eligible for rebates: rain barrels, cisterns, rain gardens, urban tree canopy, pavement removal, permeable pavement, and green roofs. A property owner proudly displays a Prince George’s County Rain Check Rebate yard sign to showcase their new permeable pavement driveway and participation in the program.
Who can apply: Property owners within Prince George’s County, Maryland, are eligible to participate with the following exception:
-
The City of Bowie manages its stormwater program independently of the County. Therefore, properties within the City of Bowie are not eligible.
Eligibility: An applicant must be the property owner or a nonprofit organization with an agreement to complete a project on public property. Applicants are not eligible for a rebate under this program if the project is part of the permit approval requirements for new building construction or renovations.
Eligible Projects
Rain Barrel
A rain barrel is a container used to collect and temporarily store rainwater that flows from the rooftop. Collected water can be reused for non-potable purposes such as watering your flower garden, trees, or lawn.
Cistern
A cistern (essentially a larger version of a rain barrel) is a sealed tank used to collect a temporarily store rainwater that flows from the rooftop. Collected water can be reused for non-potable purposes such as watering your flower garden, trees, or lawn.
Rain Garden
A rain garden is a planted shallow depression that uses water-tolerant native plants and landscaping to soak up stormwater runoff.
