NOTICE TO WESTFORD WATER USERS
OUTDOOR WATERING CONSERVATION POLICY
The Westford Water Department encourages residents to comply with the voluntary Even/Odd Outdoor Watering Policy. The Outdoor Watering Policy will be in effect May 1 through October 31, 2008. Properties with even numbered street addresses may water on even days of the month, and properties with odd numbered street addresses may water on odd days of the month. The policy can be found in the General Bylaws of the Town under Chapter 169 (Chapter 169.7, sections D through H).
With the Outdoor Watering Policy, an important goal for the Water Department is to educate the public about how valuable water is as a natural resource and to instill a sense of responsibility in all Water Users. Please remember: established lawns only need 1 inch of water per week; water in the early morning or evening when evaporation rates are lowest; do not water during rain; and avoid over watering, which actually creates a weak grass plant that cannot tolerate drought or pests. Use of hand-held hoses to water small gardens or new lawns or other plantings as needed, is not subject to this policy. We urge everyone to use water wisely this summer.
Flushing began April 7, 2008 and will continue for about 6 weeks in the areas of Westford Center, Forge Village and Graniteville
Flushing will be conducted between 8am and 3pm, Monday through Friday. There may be situations when we will also flush at night between the hours of 10pm and 2am. During these times, water pressure may be low and the water discolored. Let the water run awhile and it should clear up quickly. We regret any inconvenience this may cause you but you should notice better water after the flushing program is completed. Thank you for your assistance!
 The Westford Water Department is charged, by the town, with providing safe, high quality, uninterrupted water at a reasonable pressure, to meet the health and fire protection needs of that portion of the town served by the public water system. service while meeting various state and federal requirements.
