LOWVILLE — Informational sessions on a state program promoting energy efficiency will be held in early March at two Lewis County sites.

EmPower New York, a program sponsored by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, will be the topic of the March 1 sessions, sponsored by the Lewis County Office for the Aging.

They will be held at 10 a.m. at Maple Ridge Center, 7421 East Road, Lowville, and at 1 p.m. at the Lyons Falls Library Community Room, 3918 High St.

The NYSERDA program offers free energy-efficiency upgrades to eligible homeowners or renters.

Those who receive public assistance or have a household income within federal Home Energy Assistance Program guidelines are eligible to apply as long as they live in a building with 100 units or fewer.

To reserve a seat at either session, contact the Office for the Aging at 376-5313.
