Water Division
The primary function of the Water Division is to maintain and operate the Town's water distribution and treatment system, which includes three Town wells, three water storage tanks, eight hundred fire hydrants, and approximately 4,500 meters. The Water Division performs approximately 1,200 back flow inspections per year at commercial and industrial businesses to protect the water distribution system from non-potable sources. Other primary functions of the Water Division include ensuring water quality by routine testing and performing emergency repairs to the distribution system. Completed projects during FY08 include the installation of a water main on Concord Road between Davis Road and the Concord town line. Efforts during FY09 include the relining of water mains in several areas within the Town.


Sewer Division
The Sewer Division maintains the sewerage system which encompasses twenty-nine pump stations and 85 miles of sewage collection infrastructure. The division provides routine maintenance to ensure a free-flowing system and responds to emergencies to correct clogged or surcharged sewers. During FY08, rehabilitation efforts focused on the Pollard Inn Lane Station and the South Road Pump Station as well as managing an inflow and infiltration program to identify potential leaks in the sewage system. Efforts for FY09 include the replacement of the generator at the Carlisle Road Pump Station, rebuilding the Harvard Drive Pumping Station and ongoing inflow and infiltration programs.
