SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- The Utah Division of Housing and Community Development says Utah will extend the Home Energy Assistance Target Program application deadline until May 31 or until all funds are spent.
Utah has received about $25.4 million in HEAT funds to assist eligible low-income households in meeting their home heating and cooling needs in the 2009-2010 heating season.
The HEAT program is administered by the State Energy Assistance and Lifeline office through a statewide network of local community-based organizations.
The funding has enabled the HEAT program to assist nearly 38,000 low-income Utah households with their utility bills this winter.
