Quick check

Do the main rules appear to fit?

Your answers stay in this page session. The program makes the final decision.

1. Is the property in the official service area or account group?

A city mailing address may not match a utility or watershed boundary.

2. Does the property need one of the approved project routes listed above?
3. Have you checked the approval rule before buying or starting work?

Many programs need before photos, an inspection, or written approval.

Answer each question for a cautious result.

The rules remain visible here even if the interactive check is unavailable.

The finished result

What project qualifies?

This program may support more than one approved project route. The program’s plan and written decision control which route applies to the property.

A signed conservation plan installs a durable practice that controls mud, erosion, manure, or animal traffic. A contracted vegetative or structural practice protects soil, water, habitat, or agricultural land. Roof runoff is captured in an approved container and reused or released safely.

Details to confirm

  • Statewide existence does not mean the customer's district has an open window or offers the desired practice.
  • Rates and caps are not safely portable between districts or program years.

Examples that do not qualify

  • Buying gravel, soil, mulch, or another product by itself does not create eligibility.

Questions people ask

Is this a rebate for buying gravel or another material?

No. The program supports the qualifying property project described above. A material purchase matters only when it serves the approved design and follows the program’s payment rules.

Can I start before applying?

Get written approval before removing, buying, signing, or installing anything the program treats as project work.

Does appearing eligible guarantee funding?

No. Current status, funding, ranking, inspection, and final approval can still affect the outcome.

Who decides whether a material substitution qualifies?

The program or its designated designer. Ask West Virginia Conservation Agency and conservation districts to approve the exact substitute in writing before ordering.
