Thanks to the passage of House Bill 1024, WSSC Water’s PipeER program is expanding. As of July 1, 2024, PipeER will include sewer pipes and diagnostic actions. In addition, the maximum loan that a customer is eligible to receive is now $10,000. The bill also allows WSSC Water to increase the maximum total loans it provides or has outstanding from $1 million to $2 million and fund the program with an additional $100,000 annually, bringing the total to $200,000 per year.


Do you have a leak on your residential water or sewer line? Does that  service line need to be replaced?

If so, WSSC Water is here to help with the Pipe Emergency Replacement Loan Program (PipeER). PipeER provides a loan to finance the replacement of a leaking residential water or sewer service line. Qualified customers are eligible to receive a loan up to $10,000. PipeER is administered by the WSSC Federal Credit Union (WSSC FCU) in partnership with WSSC Water.

PipeER provides a loan to finance the replacement of a leaking residential water or sewer service line. Qualified customers are eligible to receive a loan up to $10,000. PipeER is administered by the WSSC Federal Credit Union (WSSC FCU) in partnership with WSSC Water. This loan program makes $200,000 available annually to customers in need of these emergency funds. Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis, each fiscal year until the fund is depleted. Any funds remaining on July 1 each year are donated to the Water Fund, which helps WSSC Water customers pay their water and sewer bills.
