PRIVATE WELL WATER INFORMATION

The reservoir has been refilled to restricted elevation level of 9882.7, so any impacts to surrounding wells would not be a result of the construction project.

​

The Town and the Project Engineer have identified the homeowners most likely to experience a disruption of well water supply as a result of the drawdown, and they mailed letters, emailed, and called those homeowners about the water assistance plan that has been prepared.

There is a chance that other properties located within 350 feet of the reservoir may experience a disruption in their well water supply during the drawdown period. If you experience an issue, please contact the Town using the contact information provided on this website.

​

At this time, if residents would like to self-test the water quality of their well, resources for this testing can be found at:
