According to Aquarion, the projects, which will replace approximately 930 feet of water main on Woodland Drive and 2,700 feet of water main on Keofferam Road and Hawthorne Road, are part of an ongoing program to improve Aquarion's water distribution system and to ensure the highest quality of water.
