VOLUNTARY WATER RESTRICTIONS:
The District asks all customers to observe VOLUNTARY water restrictions on outside watering. Water only during early morning and late evening hours (e.g., before 7a.m. and after 7 p.m.) to reduce evaporation and wasting water. Odd address numbers can water on odd dates and even address numbers can water on even dates. Thank you for your cooperation! Conservation Tips
The District has initiated a water meter replacement program. The purpose of this program is to improve the efficiency of meter readings. Meter registers often lose accuracy as they age. This is a free service to homeowners and in most cases a 30 minute or less process. If you receive a letter that your meter needs to be changed out, please contact our office to make an appointment. Failure to update your meter could result in a $250.00 fine or interruption in service. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Normal water tech working hours are from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, Monday through Friday, except on Holidays
There is no charge for this service.
Please note:
We do not perform appointments outside of the normal working hours listed above.
If it is an after hour emergency involving a water leak please call 508-563-2294, our answering service will see that the call is properly routed.

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances are a group of chemical compounds called PFAS. Two PFAS chemicals, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), were extensively produced and are the most studied and regulated of these chemicals. Several other PFAS that are similar to PFOS and PFOA exist. These PFAS are contained in some firefighting foams used to extinguish oil and gas fires. They have also been used in a number of industrial processes and to make carpets, clothing, fabrics for furniture, paper packaging for food and other materials (e.g., cookware) that are resistant to water, grease and stains. Because these chemicals have been used in many consumer products, most people have been exposed to them.
While consumer products and food are the largest source of exposure to these chemicals for most people,
drinking water can be an additional source of exposure in communities where these chemicals have
contaminated water supplies. Such contamination is typically localized and associated with a specific facility,
for example, an airfield at which they were used for firefighting or a facility where these chemicals were
produced or used.
