The mission of the Ponds Management Committee is to advocate for the
care of the Town-owned ponds in Walpole. We monitor the water and
environmental quality of the ponds and advise the Board of Selectmen
on appropriate management actions. Our goal is to improve the water
quality and overall condition of the ponds to maintain them as valuable
environmental, recreational, educational and aesthetic resources for
the residents of Walpole.
The
Pond Management Committee usually meets the first Wednesday
of the month. Check the Calendar for date and time.The
Committee invites public participation at its meetings and with
its various projects. Please contact the Town Administrator's
office at (508) 660-7289, or Conservation Commission Ponds Liaison
Roger Turner (508) 660-7365 with questions, concerns or input.
The
principal town ponds are: Clarks
Pond, Cobbs
Pond, Memorial
Pond, and Turner
Pond. Other
smaller ponds include Seventh
Pond, Eight
Pond, and Colburn
Pond.
