Homeowners often ask us whether there is grant money or a tax credit available to help cover the cost of a cesspool conversion on Kauaʻi. Here is the honest, current status as of 2026.
Kauaʻi County Residential Cesspool Conversion Grant Program
Status: Closed. The application period ended September 27, 2024. The program is not currently accepting new applications. We will update this page if and when the County reopens it.
State of Hawaiʻi Cesspool Conversion Income Tax Credit (Act 120 / HRS 235-16.5)
Status: Expired. The original tax credit is no longer active. Several bills have been introduced at the state level to revive or replace it, but none are law as of 2026. We monitor this closely.
Private Financing
We work with private lending resources and can point you toward options during your free site assessment. We do not promise loan amounts, rates, or approval — that conversation belongs between you and the lender.
What We Recommend
Do not wait for a grant that may never come back. Act 125 deadlines are real, and Kauaʻi contractor capacity is limited. Schedule a free site assessment, get a real proposal, and make an informed decision.
