Wayland ends water use restrictions

Effective immediately the Town of Wayland Water Division is ending water use restrictions for users of the Wayland Public Water Supply. The recent increase in flow of the Concord River at our assigned Streamflow Monitoring Gauge (USGS Gauge #01099500) has allowed us to end these water restrictions. Limiting water use, especially non-essential outdoor water use, was needed to ensure a sustainable water supply and to protect stream flow for aquatic life. The Towns water supply system is regulated by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) through its Water Management Act Permit. The Water Division will notify the public if conditions deteriorate once again and an outdoor water ban is necessary based on permit conditions.
