DO NOT FLUSH WIPES - With reports of toilet paper shortages amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Commission reminds customers that wipes, paper towels, facial tissue, and other materials – even those that claim to be “flushable” – are not designed to break down in the wastewater treatment process.
The purpose of this project is to upgrade the water systems within Massachusetts Ave, Albany Street, East Newton Street, Northampton Street and Harrison Avenue.
