The Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs has downgraded the drought status of the Connecticut River Valley to Level 0 – Normal Conditions. As a result of no longer being in a declared drought, the town is lifting all water use restrictions and allowing residents to return to normal usage.
Note that the Town of Amherst’s water supply has remained stable throughout the declared drought and not threatened by the drought. The town and state will continue to monitor the situation and will adjust restrictions if necessary.
