Governor Andrew M. Cuomo has announced $15 million in funding is available through the State Septic System Replacement Program to support homeowners. New York State will provide funds to counties to reimburse eligible property owners for a portion of the cost of replacing cesspools and septic systems and installing more environmentally effective systems.
The program is a collaboration between the DEC, Department of Health, Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC), and participating counties to administer funding to qualifying homeowners. A list of eligible counties and priority geographic areas within those counties is available on EFC's website.
