“RainScapes” projects are landscape or design techniques that help reduce stormwater runoff from individual properties. At times, the Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection offers rebates for projects to help defray their costs. The portal to apply for the RainScapes Rebate Program is now open.
Examples of Rainscapes projects include:
RainScapes can be installed on any kind of property, but those on private, residential, institutional and/ or commercial properties may be eligible for financial assistance.
To apply for a Rainscapes Project Rebate, go to RainScapes Rewards Rebates.
The application process is quick and easy. The portal will be open until the maximum limit of applications is received. It is expected the portal will be open until Oct. 15.
