WEATHERIZATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
The Low Income Weatherization Assistance Program  was established in 1977 to assist low income
persons in reducing their utility bills by providing for various energy conservation measures.  Assistance
is provided free of charge and no liens or financial obligations are placed on individuals receiving
assistance.

Funding is provided through the State of Nevada Housing Division, primarily from the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE).  Additional funds have been allocated for the Weatherization Program through the
Universal Energy Charge (UEC) to fund low income energy assistance and conservation (FEAC) in the
State of Nevada.  Funds are also provided by:

  • Mt. Wheeler Power Company
  • Bonneville Power Administration
  • Low Income Housing Trust Funds
  • Low Income Housing Energy Assistance Program


Rural Nevada Development Corporation (RNDC) is currently providing weatherization services in the
following counties: Churchill, Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Humboldt, Lander, Lincoln, Mineral, Nye,
Pershing, and White Pine.  

  • Ceiling, floor, and duct insulation

  • Shell infiltration sealing (replace broken windows, replace exterior doors, weather stripping,
    caulking, evaporative cooler covers, ect…)
  • Insulation of water heater and water heater pipes

An application must be completed by anyone interested in receiving Weatherization services.  A

documents, or call RNDC at 866-404-5204 to request an application packet.

Households whose annual gross income is at or below 150% of the federal poverty income guidelines
(established by the Office of Management and Budget) are eligible for assistance.   Individuals
participating in the state’s Energy Assistance Program (EAP) are eligible for services as well.

Assistance is provided to individuals residing in single and multi-family dwellings as well as mobile
homes, and is available to either owner or renter occupied households.  Applications are processed on a
first come, first served basis with priority given to households which are high energy users (EAP),
occupied by individuals who are elderly (60 years of age or more), disabled, or families with children age
six (6) and under.
