Section 10: Weatherization The Weatherization Assistance Program (Wx) is a federally funded program through the DOE. A percentage of EAP funds are also used in the Program. • Households with income up to 200% of poverty for DOE are eligible for Wx. • All EAP clients are eligible to be considered for Wx. No new application is required. • For LSPs who do not manage their own Weatherization Program, the LSP must upload to the statewide database all EAP documents within ten (10) business days of the Weatherization agency’s request. Weatherization Referral: EAP applicants must be advised of the Weatherization Program and asked if they would like to be referred to the program.
For both weatherization LSPs and non-weatherization LSPs, weatherization program referrals must meet the following criteria: • All clients who ask for weatherization should be put on a waitlist, regardless of their matrix point level. • All referrals must be documented in the State’s database system. This way non- weatherization LSPs can ensure that Weatherization staff can pull referral reports from the statewide Database.
