Water Conservation in Marlborough

| Project Description |
Marlborough is one of a growing number of cities west of Boston that is implementing water conservation measures so that they can accommodate future development. The situation is particularly urgent in Marlborough because its wastewater treatment facility has reached maximum capacity. Under a federal grant managed by the MassDEP, MA OTA will direct a water conservation program that includes water audits at 10 large industrial and commercial facilities. Contractors will perform eight of the audits; MA OTA will complete two of the studies. Water balance analyses will identify equipment and processes that generate the most wastewater and pinpoint water conservation opportunities. As part of this effort, MA OTA will conduct a workshop for hotel and motel managers to promote water conservation strategies. |
