Money is still available from a regional non-profit that could help Polk County residents who have issues with well or septic systems.

The Individual Household Well & Septic Loan products, offered by Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project, Inc. (SERCAP) and underwritten by USDA Rural Development, provide low-interest (1%) loans to eligible Low-to-Moderate Income (LMI) homeowners for the repair or replacement of an individual household well or septic system.

There are property and income eligibility requirements to be considered for these loans. To learn more about that, check out our previous post on this topic.

To learn more about SERCAP, check out its website (www.sercap.org).

The document below gives more information about the program, including some eligibility requirements, websites on where to apply, and people to reach out to for additional info and assistance.
