The Town of Sandwich Comprehensive Water Resource Management Plan identifies how the we need to protect our water resources. The following story by Chronicle highlights why we need to protect our water resources: https://www.wcvb.com/article/preserving-and-maintaining-cape-cods-drinking-water/26951535
The Sandwich Water Quality Advisory Committee has developed the Comprehensive Water Resources Management Plan (CWRMP) to guide the improvement of water quality in drinking water, groundwater, freshwater ponds and coastal estuaries (areas where freshwater flows into saltwater).
The plan is consistent with the requirements of the Cape Cod Commission’s 208 Water Quality Plan Update (2015). Addressing water quality at this time is critically important, as the Cape is under a court mandate to do so; not addressing this issue could result in a court intervention that would be far more expensive.
Traditional and non-traditional methods were evaluated to address the water quality needs in groundwater, freshwater ponds, coastal estuaries and a hybrid plan incorporating both approaches was supported by the Selectmen.
(See the CWRMP Executive Summary for the full list of traditional elements)
