The Town of Truro announced on April 16 that the public comment period is now open for its Comprehensive Watershed Management Plan, which has been submitted as an Environmental Notification Form to the Massachusetts Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs. The plan appeared in the April 8 edition of the Environmental Monitor, which serves as the state’s official bulletin for environmental reviews.

The opening of this comment period marks a key step in Truro’s review process under the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act. Residents are encouraged to review the plan and provide feedback before May 8.

According to town officials, this stage offers an important opportunity for community members to influence how local water resources are protected and managed moving forward. “Your input matters so please take time to participate!” said a statement from town representatives.

Interested individuals can submit their comments and find more information through the MEPA Environmental Monitor website. No additional background or historical context was provided by town officials at this time.

As Truro moves forward with its watershed planning efforts, officials emphasize that public engagement will play a significant role in shaping future decisions regarding water resource management.
