Private Water Supplies
Currently a grant scheme is in operation whereby a grant of up to £800 may be
awarded for improving a private water supply or domestic distribution system or for
a replacement private water supply. Grants in excess of £800 may be paid where the
works required would place undue financial hardship on the eligible person.
Details of what would be regarded as hardship criteria are available on request and the
merits of each hardship application will be decided on a case-by-case basis and separately
from this grant application.
- You may be eligible for a grant if you:
- are a relevant person within the meaning of the 2006 Regulations, or
- are a responsible person within the meaning of the 2006 Regulations, or
- own or occupy premises which are located in Scotland, and which are served by
a private water supply which is the principle or sole supply of water for human
consumption purposes to those premises.
- The grant is available to supplies serving domestic, commercial or public premises.
