IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you are interested in participating in the Desert Friendly Conversion Rebate, please do not start your turf removal project until you have applied online to the program and received an official Notice to proceed. Several conditions must be met in order to qualify for the xeriscape rebate. Projects that have been started or completed are not eligible for the incentive. Other terms and conditions will apply. After submitting your application online an inspection will be scheduled if your project meets minimum requirements. The visit may take up to 3 weeks or more to schedule during the busiest part of the season. Water Authority conservation rebate requirements are subject to change without notice. Rebates are limited to available funds.
REBATE PROCESS STEPS
Qualifications
- Su agua de riego será proporcionada por la Autoridad del Agua del Condado de Albuquerque Bernalillo.
- Todo el césped que se elimine deberá ser designado como de alto uso de agua, de acuerdo con nuestra lista de plantas de la Guía de Xeriscaping, y se regará actualmente con riego por aspersión.
- There is no minimum amount of turf converted. Large turf conversions projects may be done in phases.
Requirements
- Fifty percent of the project rebate area shall be covered by plants, as they appear at maturity. Select qualifying Rainwater, low, and medium water usage plants from our Xeriscaping Guide plant list and claim the mature plant area (referred to as plant points). Existing plants within the area of turf removal may be incorporated into the design and contribute to the minimum plant point total, provided they are on the Xeriscaping Guide plant list.
- Spray irrigation is not permitted in the rebate area. Existing sprinklers shall be converted to a drip or bubbler system.
- The soil between the plants shall be covered with a minimum of 3 inches of mulch. Common mulches are gravel, crusher fines or woodchips.
- Residential and Commercial Customers qualifying landscapes will receive a maximum of $2.00 for every square foot of high water use turf grass that is converted.
- Receipts for plant purchase, irrigation equipment, mulch shall be provided at final inspection. If a landscape contractor is used, provide a contractor’s itemized, zero-balance invoice.
