Something
in Your Water is Changing
In
an effort to provide better water quality and reduce disinfection
by-product formation, we will be changing our water treatment disinfection
process on Monday, June 2, 2008.
More
particularly we will be converting from chlorine to chloramines.
While the vast majority of consumers will not be affected by the
change, kidney dialysis patients and fish owners will need to
take special care in using chlorinated water.
This
notice is intended to provide a brief summary of this project as
all Walpole water consumers were mailed an informational pamphlet
that provided an in-depth description. If you did not receive this
pamphlet or if you need more information regarding this change,
please contact the Water Department at (508) 660-7307.
