Informing the WMRA Advisory Board About Regional Efforts to Sustain the Ipswich River Watershed Through Collaboration

Yesterday, I attended the WMRA Advisory Board to discuss the regionalization of water north of Boston. Recently, multiple communities, water suppliers, not-for-profit organizations, the region's federal legislative delegation, and facilitators from the Metropolitan Area Planning Council and the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation we signed a historic charter agreement to reach solutions to achieve water supply resilience and ecosystem health.
