Assistance for Homeowners Without Plumbing

Assistance is available to eligible homeowners who need repairs and installation of indoor plumbing on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Applications are available yearround at our offices at 23372 Front Street, Accomac, Virginia.

You must own your home or have, at a minimum, life rights to your home. Rental homes are not eligible for this assistance. Other eligibility requirements apply. The assistance received will be repairs and/or replacement and installation of the plumbing and the systems needed such as a septic system.

Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project also offers loans to low and moderate income persons who need to repair their water and septic systems.

The United States Department of Agriculture offers the Section 504 Single Family Housing Repair Loans & Grants program to low income persons.

The Indoor Plumbing Needs on the Eastern Shore of Virginia report was completed by the A-NPDC with funding from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation in November 2015.

The Accomack-Northampton Planning District Commission (A-NPDC) fully complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987, Executive Order 12898 on Environmental Justice, and related nondiscrimination statutes and regulations in all programs and activities.

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Specifically, Title VI provides that "no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." (42 U.S.C. Section 2000d).

A-NPDC’s website, www.esvaplan.org, may be translated into multiple languages. Publications and other documents can be made available in alternate languages and formats upon request. A-NPDC public meetings are always held in ADA-accessible facilities and in transit-accessible locations when possible. Auxiliary services can be provided to individuals who submit a request at least seven days prior to a meeting. Requests made within seven days will be accommodated to the greatest extent possible. Any person who believes they have been aggrieved by an unlawful discriminatory practice by A-NPDC under Title VI has a right to file a formal complaint. Any such complaint may be in writing and filed with A-NPDC and/or the appropriate state or federal agency within 180 days of the alleged discriminatory occurrence.
