Program Overview
The New Mexico Water Program can provide help with water for homes. This is a temporary program. It may continue as long as federal money can pay for it. The Water Program can help pay a household’s water or wastewater costs. Households must meet eligibility guidelines to be approved for the Water Program. If they are approved, payments are made directly to their water company or vendor. Payments can be made to help cover past due amounts. They can help pay for fees to reconnect service. They can also help pay late fees. The most the Water Program can pay for a household is $1,500. This is in a year.
