| Project Description |
Under a grant from the U.S. EPA and in cooperation with MassDEP, MA OTA has been visiting companies in Marlborough to investigate water conservation opportunities. Marlborough has been under capacity restraints that have imposed costs on proposed developments, inhibiting economic growth. MA OTA's task is to evaluate whether further progress in saving water is feasible at the visited sites, and replicable at other facilities, in order to free up capacity for development in the city. To enhance its ability to spot water saving options, MA OTA is hiring consultants with expertise in water conservation. These include: Ambient Engineering; Fuss & O'Neill; and Filters, Water and Instrumentation. The contractors are working under the same assurance of confidentiality provided by MA OTA's statutory mandate. MA OTA will prepare a final report that will contain a summary of water conservation recommendations, results of the visits, and lessons learned from the project. |
