PUBLIC NOTICE - LEVEL 1 DROUGHT
January 9, 2025
Following several weeks of snow and rain, Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Rebecca Tepper declared the Southeast Regions will move from a Level-3 Critical Drought to a Level-1 Mild Drought status due to improved conditions.
To comply with our Water Management Act Permit, Foxborough Water Department can allow one day a week outdoor, nonessential water use.
Residents and Businesses are still asked to minimize overall water use, and fix indoor leaks, such as from toilets, faucets, and showers, which result in more than 60 percent of indoor use.
Larger buildings and businesses are encouraged to conduct water audits to identify areas of leaks and potential water conservation opportunities.
