The Charlestown Climate Resiliency Commission is looking for input from communities across the South County region on well water issues and usage as they work with agencies and partners to kick off an aquifer resilience initiative. Your responses to this 5-minute survey will help them determine next best steps toward building a shared regional understanding of how much our aquifer can sustainably support now and into the future.
