act today before free pavers and funding run out!‏

See this message from DC Department of the Environment's Lauren Linville, who made a brief presentation at this past Monday evening's Bloomingdale Civic Association meeting.

The District Department of the Environment’s special Bloomingdale incentives are ending soon – take advantage of higher incentives and free pavers while they last!

The District Department of the Environment (DDOE) is offering rebates to help homeowners in the Bloomingdale Sewershed defray the costs of retrofitting driveways, rooftops, patios, etc. with features that help absorb rainwater, such as:

·         Green roofs: $15 per square foot (sq ft) rebate for new green or vegetated roof installed

·         Pervious pavers: $10 per sq ft rebate, PLUS free pavers (valued at $5/sq ft) while supplies last, for impervious surface replaced with pervious pavers

·         Impervious surface removal: $5 per sq ft rebate for impervious surface replaced with vegetation (garden, sod, soil/seed)

Funding and materials are limited so rebates are awarded on a first come, first served basis.  Find out if your project qualifies at http://ddoe.dc.gov/bloomingdalerebates or contact Lauren Linville at lauren.linville@dc.gov.
