Water authority seeks lower withdrawal limit, cites Rosegill project for improved finances
Summary
Middlesex Water Authority reported lower usage year over year and asked to lower its withdrawal permit limit to avoid extra testing wells; the Rosegill project was described as likely to put the authority into a positive financial position.
Mr. England briefed the Board on several operational and regulatory matters for the Middlesex Water Authority. He said the Authority requested a lower withdrawal permit limit to avoid installing additional testing wells, and noted water usage is down year over year. He said a slight increase in billing had been observed but was not a contributing factor to the usage decline; differences between billed amounts and actual usage were attributed to leaks and fire-service usage.
Mr. England said the Rosegill project would bring the Water Authority into a positive financial position. Board members and staff also discussed the possibility of sharing a Middlesex Water Authority employee with the county Utilities Department to increase efficiency.
