New Customer Assistance Program Based On Customer’s Income Now Available

Illinois American Water’s new customer assistance program will provide financial assistance to customers based on their household income.

Illinois American Water has partnered with Dollar Energy to launch the new income-based, discount program. As part of the new program, approved water and/or wastewater customers will receive a monthly discount on their water and/or wastewater bill.

An applicant for the Income-based Discount Program must be a residential customer of Illinois American Water to qualify. Eligible participants can receive a 70 percent discount on their monthly volumetric usage. A customer’s total gross income must be at or below 150 percent of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. Once enrolled, customers will be required to recertify their number of household members and income information on an annual basis to remain enrolled in the program.

For questions about the program, or to apply for the Income-Based Discount Program, customers can call Dollar Energy at 1.888.282.6816 or they can apply directly at the company’s website that includes an income calculator and a link to the application.
