  • Assabet River Watershed
    ASSABET RIVER WATERSHED The Assabet River begins in Westborough at the George H. Nichols Dam which is the outlet on the Assabet River Reservoir, also known as the A1 site. The dam, which was created for “fish and wildlife development and flood prevention,” impounds approximately 0.6 mi2. The river flows northeast through Northborough, Marlborough, Hudson, Stow, Maynard, and Concord. It is joined in Westborough by Hocomonco Stream. Hocomonco Stream drains Hocomonco Pond, a Superfund site. Below the confluence with Hocomonco Stream the Assabet River receives the discharge from the Westborough WWTP before receiving flow from Hop Brook. The river flows through a golf course and is again dammed in Northborough Center at the Route 20 dam (also known as the Aluminum City Dam). Before taking a 90-degree turn to be impounded by the Allen Street Dam the Assabet River receives the flows from Cold Harbor Brook. The river next receives the discharge from the Marlborough West WWTP and North Brook before it flows through the Hudson Street impoundment in downtown Hudson. After exiting Hudson Center the river receives the discharge from the Hudson WWTP just above the Gleasondale Dam. The Assabet continues its slow meandering into the Town of Stow where it receives freshwater inputs from the Elizabeth Brook/Assabet Brook subwatershed before it reaches the Ben Smith Dam. In Maynard center part of the river is diverted through the canal and mill pond at Clock Tower Place (the former American Woolen Mill), before rejoining the bypassed section downstream from the mill and just upstream from the USGS Assabet River gage.

  • Massdot Is Committed to Improving the Quality of Stormwater Runoff from Its Highways
    MassDOT is committed to improving the quality of stormwater runoff from its highways. Through the “Impaired Waters Program,” MassDOT addresses stormwater runoff from its roadways draining to impaired water bodies as part of compliance with the NPDES Phase II Small MS4 General Permit. Stormwater best management practices (BMPs) are implemented to the maximum extent practicable through two methods: retrofit projects and programmed projects. Retrofit projects are tracked within the MassDOT Impaired Waters Program Database, while programmed projects are tracked through this Water Quality Data Form (WQDF). The goal of the WQDF is to raise awareness of the necessity to implement stormwater BMPs during programmed projects and to capture information about stormwater BMPs that are implemented. There are two WQDFs required as part of each programmed project. One is specific to the 25% design stage, and the other is specific to the 75% design stage. Please download the latest version of the WQDF from the MassDOT website. Please fill out the tab titled “75% Design Form,” and check the box at the bottom of the form to ensure that all questions have been answered adequately. Please submit this form in Excel format only and name your file with the convention WQDF25_projectnumber.xlsm. Submit the form to your MassDOT project manager as part of the project's electronic submittal. An interactive web map is available to aid in filling out the WQDF. It is available at http://mass.gov/massdot/map/wqdf. If MassDOT has requested that the form be revised and resubmitted, resubmit the form using the naming convention WQDF75_projectnumber_rev.xlsm.

    The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services Department of Public Health Bureau of Environmental Health 250 Washington Street, Boston, MA 02108-4619 Phone: 617-624-5757 Fax: 617-624-5777 CHARLES 0. BAKER MARYLOU $UDDERS Governor TTY: 617-624-5286 Secretary KARYN E. POLITO MONICA BHAREL, MD, MPH Lieutenant Governor Commissioner Tel: 617-624-6000 www.mass.gov/dph August 3, 2017 Ms. Gina Armstrong Director Pittsfield Health Department 70 Allen Street Pittsfield, MA 01201 Dear Ms. Armstrong: The purpose of this letter is to inform the Pittsfield Health Department of a fish consumption advisory for Silver Lake in Pittsfield Massachusetts. The Environmental Toxicology Program (ETP) within the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Bureau of Environmental Health ·(MDPH/BEH), routinely works with municipal health officials to understand the presence and nature of health hazards in the community. Enclosed, please find a list of all the public health fish consumption advisories that have been issued at freshwater locations in Massachusetts. In response to a request from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), MDPH reviewed available fish sampling data for Silver Lake (EPA 2014a). Contaminant levels in fish were compared to MDPH guidelines for fish consumption to address possible health risks from exposure to PCBs through consumption offish from Silver Lake. The health effects that are associated with exposure to PCBs include impairments in the liver, thyroid, skin, eye, and immune system. Health effects such as neurodevelopmental changes, reduced birth weight, reproductive toxicity, and cancer have also been described (ATSDR, 2000). Pregnant women and nursing infants are particularly sensitive to PCB exposure.
