On July 21, 2022 Secretary Beth Card of the MA Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, declared a Level 3-Critical Drought in Northeast and Central Massachusetts. Secretary Card urges residents and businesses to continue to be extremely mindful of their overall water use, select only native and drought resistant plants for new plantings, and particularly, in Level 3 – Critical drought areas, to halt all non-essential water use.
