Eligible education projects may include seminars, programs, or displays on hydrology, water treatment processes, distribution, non-point source pollution, erosion and sediment control, water quality monitoring, or any related topic.

Eligible watershed protection projects may include stream restoration projects, non-point source pollution management projects or other activities aimed at improving water quality within Fairfax Water’s watershed.

Individual property owners may apply for a grant to support stabilization projects aimed at restoring the shoreline along the Occoquan Reservoir, in accordance with Fairfax Water’s Shoreline Easement Policy.
