Customizable Rebate

Shallow wells are an alternative water source that provide non-potable water that can be used for watering landscapes. This water cannot be used for drinking or for inside household uses, and homeowners still need to follow the local watering ordinance. Eligibility is determined in part by the volume of water used, and by the location, which must be in an appropriate area for shallow wells.
