2022 Voluntary Outdoor Water Use Restrictions begin Sunday May 1. At this time we ask our customers to follow the odd/even watering schedule as follows: Odd-numbered addresses may water on odd-numbered days between the hours of 6:00 pm and 9:00 am. Even-numbered addresses may water on even-numbered days between the hours of 6:00 pm and 9:00 am.
The odd/even watering schedule allows us to keep up with consumer demand by spreading out usage. Watering between 6 pm and 9 am when evapotranspiration is at the lowest level makes watering more effective and reduces waste.
Any upgrade to restrictions will be communicated by signage around town, the Westford Eagle, the Town and Water Department websites, and the town electronic notification system.
Since our Country Road well is currently offline, and we are uncertain when it will be back in service—following these voluntary restrictions will help to reduce the need to upgrade to mandatory restrictions. So please do your part and help!
