• The next Quabbin fight is already here (commonwealthbeacon.org) — Wayland is being considered to join the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority system, potentially gaining Quabbin Reservoir water as the agency seeks approval to withdraw 20 million more gallons per day. The plan has sparked intense pushback from Quabbin-area towns worried about environmental impacts and fairness, setting up a major state-level fight that could shape Wayland's future water supply and development options.
