Watering Restrictions

In accordance with the Town of Plymouth's Water Management Act Withdrawal Permit, non-essential watering restrictions are mandated from May 1 through September 30. These restrictions are set in place each spring and are designed to minimize withdrawals from the aquifer and prevent exceedance of the permitted withdrawal volume set by the Department of Environmental Protection. The restrictions are subject to change based on issuance of drought declaration by the Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs. 

Outdoor watering shall be restricted to no more than 60 minutes in accordance with the watering schedule outlined below.
