Despite recent rains, the Massachusetts Drought Status for our region remains at Level 2 – Significant Drought.

If you are planning to reactivate your irrigation system in the coming weeks, please be sure to program it in compliance with the water conservation restrictions of Thursday, May 1, 2025 which are still in effect:

Until further notice, all non-essential outdoor water use shall be restricted to no more than two days per week. Watering by sprinkler or irrigation is allowed on customer assigned days only before 9:00 AM and after 5:00 PM.
• Odd numbered addresses are assigned Tuesdays and Thursdays.
• Even numbered addresses are assigned Wednesdays and Fridays.
As a reminder, non-essential uses include:
• Irrigation of lawns via sprinklers or automatic irrigation systems
• Washing of vehicles, except in a commercial car wash or as necessary for operator safety
• Washing of exterior building surfaces, parking lots, driveways, or sidewalks (except as necessary to apply surface treatments such as paint, preservatives, stucco, pavement, or concrete).

Households and businesses that draw water from private wells are exempt from these restrictions; however, the Town encourages their participation given their impact on our shared aquifer.

Mandatory water restrictions put in place now will help protect our resources and possibly reduce greater water shortages this summer. The Chatham Water Department respectfully requests the support of our residents and business community in complying with these restrictions to ensure the future health and adequacy of our water supply. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

If you have any questions, please contact the Chatham Water Department at (508) 945-5150.

Protecting Cape Cod’s natural resources and creating housing for the people who live and work here are not opposing ideas — they go hand in hand.

Housing Assistance CEO Alisa Magnotta and Association to Preserve Cape Cod Executive Director Andrew Gottlieb recently came together to highlight a shared belief: thoughtful, community-centered planning can support both environmental protection and attainable housing.

Through partnerships like Grow Smart Cape Cod, organizations across the region are working together to advance smart growth strategies that preserve what makes the Cape special while helping ensure local residents can continue to call it home. Learn more here: https://growsmartcapecod.org/
