§ 601.44. Payees.
(a) If the household pays for fuel directly, the Department pays the vendor on behalf of the eligible household unless the vendor refuses or is ineligible to participate in the program, or the household purchased and paid for its fuel during the off-season.
(b) If the household pays for heat as an undesignated part of rent or the fuel vendor refuses or is ineligible to receive a LIHEAP payment, the Department pays the benefit to the applicant for the household.
(c) Because landlords, housing authorities, rental agents, hotel and rooming house proprietors and managers and other parties who are not direct suppliers of home heating, energy or service are not vendors, they are ineligible for a vendor payment on behalf of an eligible household.
