Medfield Water Conservation Restriction Implemented 6/22/23

Water Conservation Restrictions Current Water Conservation Status (updated June 22, 2023) https://www.town.medfield.net/...

Due to the streamflow of the Charles River gauge being under the Town's threshold based on Medfield's Water Management Act Permit, we are required to implement a Tier 2 Streamflow Triggered Restriction.

Nonessential water use allowed every other day. Even numbered addresses will be allowed to lawn water on even numbered calendar days. Odd numbered addresses will be allowed to lawn water on odd numbered calendar days. Lawn watering is allowed outside the hours of 9am to 5pm on designated day.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. If you have any questions, please contact the Water Department at 508-906-3004 or by email to mgoulet@medfield.net
