As mandated by the Department of Environment Protection (DEP) to ensure a sustainable water supply through the Town’s high water demand season, the North Attleborough Water Department has issued a Mandatory Non-Essential Water Use Restriction beginning May 1, 2013. This water use restriction shall be effective through September 30th, 2013.

1. All non-essential water use is ONLY ALLOWED on Tuesday and Saturday before 9 am and after 5 pm at ODD NUMBERED houses.
2. All non-essential water use is ONLY ALLOWED on Wednesday and Sunday before 9 am and after 5 pm at EVEN NUMBERED houses.

Nonessential outdoor water use is allowed ONE DAY per week before 9am and after 5pm (Odd Numbered houses on Saturday, Even Numbered houses on Sunday) whenever a Drought Advisory or higher is declared by the Massachusetts Drought Management Task Force.

Non-essential water use is defined as the following:

• Irrigation of lawns via sprinklers or automatic irrigation systems
• Washing of vehicles, except in a commercial car wash
• Washing of exterior building surfaces, parking lots, driveways, except as necessary to apply surface treatments such as paint, preservatives or cement.

The following uses may be allowed when mandatory restrictions are in place:

Violation of the Non-Essential Water Use Restriction may result in penalties:
1st offence – Reminder Notice to home (documented)
2nd offence – Written Warning to home delivered by mail.
3rd offence – $50 Fine.
4th offence – $100 fine (daily for each additional offence)

Please note that these restrictions are required by the DEP’s Water Management Act Permit, and are not a result of diminished water supply.  The restriction program is designed to sustain water supply within the region. Your anticipated cooperation is greatly appreciated.

The North Attleborough Public Works Water Division will begin flushing fire hydrants Tuesday, April 16, 2013 (Tuesday–Thursday for the first week) and continue for approximately ten weeks (Monday–Thursday).

Flushing will begin in the Kelley Blvd. section from the Attleboro line to the Plainville line (Route 152), the Cliffs area and the Industrial Park.  Flushing will be done from 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. This schedule is dependent on weather conditions. 

This maintenance activity is being performed to maintain water quality throughout the system. Minor discoloration of water may result in the areas where flushing operations are occurring.  Residents should refrain from doing laundry if discoloration of the water is observed. If you experience discoloration, run your cold water until the water clears. This may take several minutes.  If the discoloration does not clear, please contact the Water Division.  While flushing operations are occurring, there may be pressure fluctuations in the adjacent neighborhood. 

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our residents.  Should you have any questions, please call the Water Division at 508-695-7790.
