Storm Water Asset Management Program

Storm Drain

Winchendon is assessing the municipal drainage system to support the development of a Stormwater Asset Management Program, as part of a MassDEP Grant.  Personnel from the Winchendon Department of Public Works and a hired consultant, Tighe & Bond, will be visiting stormwater structures throughout Town between May and November 2024 – you may see them inspecting catch basins, drain manholes, outfalls, and culverts in your neighborhood. 

Remember, when pet waste, leaves, or litter is thrown in catch basins, it can clog the drainpipes and lead to flooding, pollute our waterways, and harm the local wildlife.  If you would like to learn more about Winchendon’s stormwater management efforts and goals, visit the link below: https://www.townofwinchendon.com/public-works/pages/winchendon-stormwate....
