Manganese Advisory
The Water Department issued a manganese advisory on November 1, 2013. Monthly test results are available our water quality site.
The Perkins Row well exceeded MassDEP's limit of 0.3 milligrams per Liter during the summer of 2016. Both water sources are now below State manganese limit. The advisory will remain in place until the treatment plant is built and in operation.
Water Treatment Plant Information
A Special Town Meeting held on June 20, 2017 approved $10.4 million for the construction of a water treatment facility. Construction is underway and we expect the plant to open in early 2019. Click here for more information.
Mandatory Outdoor Water Restriction
Nonessential outdoor use is limited to hand-held implements before 9 AM or after 5 PM each day. The use of irrigation systems or lawn sprinklers is prohibited.
