Rain Check Rebate Program

How it works

Prince George’s County says the Rain Check Rebate Program was reinstated for fiscal year 2026. The program allows property owners to receive rebates for installing Rain Check-approved stormwater management practices.

The county works with the Chesapeake Bay Trust (CBT) to administer the program. CBT staff help answer questions, review and process applications, and perform pre- and post-inspections.

What the money covers

The page does not list dollar amounts on the main program page, but it states that rebates are available for Rain Check-approved stormwater management practices.

How to apply

The county directs applicants to click “Apply for a Rebate,” which takes them to the Chesapeake Bay Trust site to learn more and submit an application.

Timing and deadlines

• The county says the program is reinstated for fiscal year 2026.
• Projects must be completed within 12 months of CBT pre-approval.
• For rain barrels, the receipt or invoice must be within 12 months of applying.
• CBT must inspect the completed project and confirm compliance with the approved application.

Important restrictions

Applicants are not eligible if the project involves permit requirements for new construction, additions, or renovations, or if the property is within a municipality that has a similar stormwater-management rebate program.
