CHARLTON — The Water and Sewer Commission approved $20,000 in McClure Engineering work for a Route 20 traffic management plan and a MassDEP response. By roll call, members backed a $5,000 plan needed for a MassDOT access permit and a $15,000 response to a DEP enforcement meeting, both billed time and expense. A Veolia representative said sludge hauling was nearly caught up after an incinerator closure, though plant loadings remain over design.
The commission also approved a $108,727.76 warrant, and members asked for a running tally of capacity commitments under the moratorium. Veolia said Comag system repairs await a decision on its contract.
