Levels in Effect will be posted throughout the District and in the local media. The signs will show the level number in the following colors:
LEVEL 1:GREEN LEVEL 2: YELLOW LEVEL 3: RED
WHY DO WE NEED LEVELS?
To ensure adequate pressure and fire protection, storage tanks must be 3/4 full. If this amount cannot be replenished during non-watering times more restrictive hours must be established by going up a level.
Your Efforts in conserving our groundwater resources are critical for the success of this program. The Department of Environmental Protection, Massachusetts' regulatory agency, requires all water utilities to institute a Water Management Program, which encourages conservation and increases public awareness in the responsible use of our groundwater resources. The District must demonstrate and report the success of your efforts as a water-wise consumer. Full compliance is mandatory and all automatic sprinkler systems are required to have rain sensors, backflow devices, plumbing permits and be set in compliance with our program hours.
