Currently, only five of the 23 households are eligible for the EPA funding and another six are being screened to determine whether they are eligible for EPA funding. If only five households are eligible for EPA funding, then the maximum amount of assistance available via the court ordered settlement for the remaining 18 homeowners would be about $11,111 per homeowner. While VDH can estimate the amount of funding that will be available to those who do not qualify for the EPA grant, the distribution of money from the court settlement funds is at the order of the court and VDH does not have final authority on providing funding.<\/p>\n<p>VDH anticipates that some contribution by households to offset the cost of installing a new well (or associated costs such as clearing area of trees and debris) may be necessary.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-anchor-id=\"information-for-residents-receiving-epa-grant-funds-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-header-container\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-header\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-label-information-for-residents-receiving-epa-grant-funds-new\" aria-controls=\"accordion-content-information-for-residents-receiving-epa-grant-funds-new\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-title sow-accordion-title-icon-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tInformation for Residents Receiving EPA Grant Funds *NEW*\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-open-close-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-open-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"sow-icon-ionicons\" data-sow-icon=\"&#xf218;\"\n\t\t \n\t\taria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-close-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"sow-icon-ionicons\" data-sow-icon=\"&#xf209;\"\n\t\t \n\t\taria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"sow-accordion-panel-content\"\n\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"accordion-label-information-for-residents-receiving-epa-grant-funds-new\"\n\t\t\t\tid=\"accordion-content-information-for-residents-receiving-epa-grant-funds-new\"\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"display: none;\"\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-border\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once residents have submitted via the Screening Tool they will be told whether or not they may be eligible for EPA Grant Funds.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Candidates will receive an email asking them to fill out a WIIN-SUDC grant application and a Well permit application.

VDH expects to know by early July how many homeowners qualify to receive EPA grant funding. Once that is known, VDH will calculate the expected amount of funding from the court settlement that the other homeowners are likely to receive. Please note that all awards of money from the court settlement fund will be on order of the court. VDH does not have the final decision on funding.<\/li>\n<li>Do I need to wait to know the amount of court settlement funding I will receive before I can apply for a private well permit?\n<ul>\n<li>No, you do not need to wait to apply for a private well permit. In fact, VDH encourages customers of Shenandoah Utility Services to apply for a private well permit as soon as possible. Already having a private well permit will help speed the process along once the expected funding amount is known.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Do I need to know the amount of court settlement funding I will receive before I have a private well drilled?\n<ul>\n<li>Homeowners may move forward with having a private well drilled before receiving information about the amount of court settlement funds they are likely to receive. Doing so is at their own risk, however.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>How do I go about receiving payment from the court settlement funds?\n<ul>\n<li>As of now, the court settlement funds would be paid as part of a reimbursement program. That means that you would need to have the well drilled, disconnect from the Shenandoah Utility Services water system, and submit evidence that you have paid for the well in full before you could be considered for payment from the court settlement proceeds. VDH is looking to see if some flexibility could be added into the process, such as allowing payment from the court settlement funds to be made directly to the well driller so the homeowner would not be responsible for paying the entire amount to the well driller and then waiting for reimbursement from the court settlement funds. VDH will update those who will be relying upon the court settlement if there is any change in this respect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Is there a deadline to drill a private well?\n<ul>\n<li>As of now, there is no set deadline. However, the expectation of the court order is that the Shenandoah Utility Services water system will be closed at some point, meaning that all homeowners currently connected to it will have to obtain an alternative source of water for their home. The court may issue an order in the future imposing a deadline to complete the work to be eligible to receive any of the court settlement funds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-anchor-id=\"contact-us\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-header-container\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-header\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-label-contact-us\" aria-controls=\"accordion-content-contact-us\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-title sow-accordion-title-icon-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tContact us\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-open-close-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-open-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"sow-icon-ionicons\" data-sow-icon=\"&#xf218;\"\n\t\t \n\t\taria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-close-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"sow-icon-ionicons\" data-sow-icon=\"&#xf209;\"\n\t\t \n\t\taria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"sow-accordion-panel-content\"\n\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"accordion-label-contact-us\"\n\t\t\t\tid=\"accordion-content-contact-us\"\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"display: none;\"\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-accordion-panel-border\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you have questions, please email us as <a href=\"mailto:VDH_SWAP_Grant@vdh.virginia.gov\">VDH_SWAP_Grant@vdh.virginia.gov<\/a> using the subject line: \u201cShenandoah Utility Service\u201d.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction\u00a0 Shenandoah Utility Services Waterworks currently provides water to some homes in Page County.
