COMMITTED TO QUALITY Each
and Every Day of the Year!
The Turners Falls Water Department’s main source
of water consists of two artesian wells located at the Tolan
Farm well field. These gravel-packed Wells pump 1.2 to 2 million gallons of water
per day to the filter plant. The treated, filtered water is then discharged
into the gravity fed distribution system. There are over 57 miles of
underground mains and pipe within the Turners Falls Water District. The
storage facilities located on Wills Hill in Turners Falls have a total
storage capacity of 6.3 million gallons. Lake Pleasant and Green Pond are
emergency backup surface water supplies.
- The Board of Water
Commissioners meets the first Wednesday of each month at 4:30 at the
Turners Falls Water Department.
