Heal Our Waterways is offering a new cost-share program of up to $10,000 in rebates for green infrastructure on commercial and other large-scale developments within the Bradley and Hewletts Creeks Watersheds. To be eligible, you must:

  • Be located in the Bradley or Hewletts Creeks Watersheds (check your address at www.wilmingtonnc.gov/watershedmap)
  • Be commercial, mixed use, high-density residential, or HOA common area
  • Go above minimum permitted stormwater requirements (for local and state stormwater permits)
  • Have a contractor that is able to design and construct the project
Projects must fill out an application and be approved prior to construction. We will then work with you and your contractors to ensure the successful installation of green infrastructure practices, like infiltration basins, constructed wetlands, rainwater cisterns, and more. Depending on the practice you choose and the size, you could receive a rebate up to $10,000! Funding is first-come, first-served until depleted each fiscal year, so email us today if you're interested in trying out this pilot program! healourwaterways@wilmingtonnc.gov
