Truro Water Supply Monitoring

At a glance

• What: Provincetown's response to Truro's new public water supply test well and pumping test, and to Truro's watershed management plan, because the towns share water resources.
• Where it stands: On August 24 the Board approved, on consent, a letter to the state Department of Environmental Protection Southeast Regional Office requesting consultation and monitoring of the North Union Field wellfield, and (as amended, 5-0) a letter to the Cape Cod Commission requesting notice and participation in its Section 208 consistency review of Truro's Comprehensive Watershed Management Plan (EEA No. 17054).

Detail

• August 24: Clerk Miller pulled the Commission letter from the consent agenda after feedback from the Commission and edited it for clarity. Motion Miller, second Sandberg, 5-0. The minutes name the plan as Troy's in one place, an apparent typo for Truro.
• September 14: The Town Manager's report included an update on the shared water resources with Truro.
