West Newbury systems & permits
West Newbury does NOT appear on MWRA's customer communities list. The West Newbury Water Department's own Water Quality Report states: "Our source of drinking water is Wellfield 1, which is located at 999 Main Street. The wellfield comprises nine individual shallow-driven wells that are manifolded and one deep bedrock well. We have approximately 29 miles of water main, two water storage tanks, and one booster transfer station. We supply water to approximately 1,100 services, which is approximately 64 percent of the town. In addition, we purchase water from the City of Newburyport when it is impossible to keep up with demand."
MassDEP prepared a Source Water Assessment Program report for West Newbury's Wellfield 1 and assigned the system a susceptibility ranking of "moderate." In 1999 the Town adopted a Ground Water Protection Bylaw setting zoning restrictions within the watershed of the groundwater supply.
West Newbury's public permitting portal issues permit types including BUILDING, ELECTRICAL, GAS, MECHANICAL, PLUMBING, SHEET METAL, TRENCH, and TRENCH STREET DRIVEWAY — confirming the Town runs its own trench and street/driveway trench permit process separate from the building permit.
The West Newbury Water Department's published Water Service Specifications require a minimum 5 feet of cover in all directions for water service lines and connections, that water service lines run in a separate trench at least 5 feet away from drain, electric, telephone and gas lines, and that "Sewer lines must be run 10' away unless otherwise approved by the Board of Water Commissioners." New water service applications must be taken out by November 15 each year with installation to the customer's curb stop completed by November 30; turn-on timing in spring depends on frost leaving the ground.
