Standard-Times Staff
NEW BEDFORD Local nonprofit Buzzards Bay Coalition received a $75,000 grant to support testing a faster way to monitor its nitrogen-reducing septic systems.
The pilot project will occur in West Falmouth where the coalition has installed 30 of these systems over the last four years.
“The impact of what we learn in this study will go well beyond West Falmouth,” said Maureen Thomas, water resources specialist for the coalition, in a written statement. “The information that we collect will be directly transferable throughout the Buzzards Bay watershed and to other coastal communities working on tackling the nitrogen pollution problem by implementing nitrogen-reducing septic systems.”
