Grant for Water Improvments - what's covered?

kormak

I qualify for a grant to improve my water scheme.
I don't need any reverse osmosis or softener systems but do need UV + sediment filters.
I also need to build a new pump house as the existing setup is a very basic railway sleepers with a sheet of metal on top.
Not very effective to keep pump/filters dry and free from frost.
I also intend applying for a new fibre glass pressure vessel and finally require some extending of the output pip on the ground as it's a good bit below actual ground level.
My question is, are these covered under the grant? I'm hoping to get quotes for everything and apply but am curious what's deemed accepatble and what's not?

Cheers, I was kind of looking for specifics though... i.e. a filtration system is accepted, but is a new (required) pump hose accepted, etc...

Unless I am missing something, it explains exactly what is acceptable under the scheme.

Section 3.1 states
"the construction or improvement of a pumphouse, piping or other facilities in connection with the supply of water,..."
