    THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS WATER RESOURCES COMMISSION 100 CAMBRIDGE STREET, BOSTON MA 02114 REPORT OF THE FINDINGS, JUSTIFICATIONS, AND DECISION OF THE WATER RESOURCES COMMISSION Relating to the Approval of the Town of Burlington’s Request for an Interbasin Transfer Pursuant to M.G.L. Chapter 21 § 8C DECISION On November 12, 2020, by a ten to one (10-1) vote, the Massachusetts Water Resources Commission (WRC) approved the Town of Burlington’s request for an Interbasin Transfer to join the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) Water Works System. This vote was taken after review of the facts provided by the Town of Burlington, analysis of the associated data, and consideration of comments received concerning this request. INTRODUCTION On November 26, 2019, the WRC received a request from the Town of Burlington for approval of an action to increase the present rate of interbasin transfer under the Interbasin Transfer Act (ITA) (M.G.L. Chapter 21 §§ 8B-8D) as part of a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) submitted to the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) office. The DEIR proposed a water supply transfer through an interconnection to MWRA. Additional information was requested by the WRC and received in the Final EIR, submitted in February 2020. The Secretary’s Certificate on the FEIR was issued on April 17, 2020. The WRC accepted Burlington’s application as complete at its May 14, 2020 meeting. Burlington is proposing to purchase a maximum of 6.5 million gallons per day (MGD) of water from MWRA to supplement its existing water supply source, the Mill Pond Reservoir (Figure 1).

    Winter 20 Fall 2017 A close-up view of our chapter’s vibrancy and dedication. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Fall issue 2017 Letter from the Editors Chair Dave Cole The fall issue is loaded with neat articles ranging from two pieces in the Vice Chair Joe Massery history corner in anticipation of the 100th Anniversary Kickoff to a Secretary Pat Flanagan bicycling trip journal, an update from the Chapter’s endowment chair, Treasurer Jose Schroen an article on climate change, a young member’s report on a recent trail At-Large Social Media Barbara Dyer crew weekend, and more. Biking Bruce Wester We are continuously inspired by the dedication of volunteers and Communications Zenya Molnar depth of insights provided to the world of the great outdoors through Communications Alexandra Molnar the compelling prose and photographs of our contributors. Having the Conservation Kim Beauchemin privilege to read the more personal accounts, such as trip journals— Endowment Patricia Lambert this month a story about a seven-day bike ride from Massachusetts to Families Ingrid Molnar the grueling hills of New Hampshire—truly opens up the readers’ Hiking Gina Shea perspective to the activities in which we don’t ourselves partake and to Historian Michele Simoneau trips we may want to plan in the future. Leadership Deb Herlihy Membership Karen Maki We hope you enjoy reading fellow chapter members' stories, and keep the article ideas coming for the winter edition.
