LIEAP funds available The Oregon Legislative Emer gency Board (E-Board) has approved an appropriation of 3.3 million of suite emergency funds to supplement the Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP). As a result funding levels are now 1991-92 levels. Central Oregon Community Ac lion Agency Network (COCAAN) will be receiving approximately $162,000 to further assist low in come Central Oregonians with their winter heating bills. This translates lo approximately 700 more house holds receiving assistance. Sharon Miller, Executive Direc tor of COCAAN stated "We have had to turn away approximately 300 households seeking assistance. With these funds we will be able to serve these households along with others who are struggling to meet their high energy bills brought on by extreme weather conditions." I louse holds m ust have a total gross income at or below 1 25 of the Fed eral Poverty Level to be eligible for the one-time energy assistance pay ment, which averages approx imatcly $200. The poverty guideline is es tablished by the Federal Government and takes into consideration house hold size and income. For example, a household of one would be eligible for LIEAP with an annual income at or below $8,572 or $709 per month. The income level increases by $2,975 per year, or $248 per month for each additional household member.
