The Town has prioritized this issue in the Town’s approved Hazard Mitigation Plan and this mitigation project is the greatest priority in the Town’s Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Plan. The overall goal of this project is to restore the riverway’s capacity and abate systematic flooding in the downtown area that has caused repetitive damage and safety issues as both the Fire and Police Departments are adjacent to the River and could be delayed due to flooding that makes main roads impassable.</p><p><strong><a href="/imo/media/doc/North%20Attleborough%20Ten-Mile%20River%20Dredging%20Project%20Approps.pdf" data-entity-uuid="d3f86902-4d04-4464-b8f0-cd8b90ae660d">Member Certification Letter</a></strong></p><p>_________________________</p><p> </p><p><strong>Project:</strong> Somerset Emergency Dam Improvements</p><p><strong>Amount of Request</strong>: $975,000</p><p><strong>Project sponsor:</strong> Town of Somerset Water Department</p><p><strong>Address including street name, city, state and zip code:</strong> 3249 County Street, Somerset, MA 02726</p><p><strong>Project description:</strong> The Somerset reservoir dam was created in 1964, and is the primary source of drinking water for the town. The anticipated approach will be to provide greater capacity to accommodate larger storm events up to an including the ½ Probable Maximum Flood including raising the level of the dam crest to prevent overtopping during the SDF event. Per the Flood Control and Improvements to the Somerset Reservoir Dam study, it was found that raising the dam to El. 60 was sufficient to prevent overtopping during the SDF event with 0.0 feet of freeboard reaming at the dam. This correlates to 1.8 feet above the design top of dam (El. 58.2) and between 0.4 and 2.0 feet above the current / as-built top of dam (El. 52.0 – 59.6). If 0.2 feet water over topped the dam, this event would lead to erosion and dam failure and should flow runs along the toe of the dam causing erosion and destabilization of the dam. The proposed dam enhancements incorporate nature-based solutions. The enhancements will be designed to work with storm flow and better control and diffuse flow. Utilizing sod and stone to stabilize the earthen structures and require only annual mowing to maintain, similar to that which is currently utilized for the existing dam.</p><p><strong><a href="/imo/media/doc/Somerset%20Emergency%20Dam%20Improvements%20Approps.pdf" data-entity-uuid="98025341-2bf0-4c39-979b-4eadba9210a8">Member Certification Letter</a></strong></p><p>_________________________</p><p> </p><p><em>Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies</em></p><p><strong>Project:</strong> Hopedale Water Supply</p><p><strong>Amount of Request</strong>: $2,000,000</p><p><strong>Project sponsor:</strong> Town of Hopedale</p><p><strong>Address including street name, city, state and zip code:</strong> 78 Hopedale St, Hopedale, MA 01747</p><p><strong>Project description:</strong> The Town of Hopedale is experiencing a critical water supply issue, in both a quantity and quality perspective. Recent PFAS testing results combined with a low draw have shut down a primary well. Dedicated funding from the Clean Water State Revolving Fund will provide an immediate, significant improvement to the Town’s water quantity issue, especially in the high demand periods, while also providing additional benefits to the long term, new source aspects.

Medway is not able to pump sufficient water for peak demand and is very vulnerable in an emergency situation (e.g. most productive well shuts down).

These 3 wells provide ~70% of the water to the Norton water system. Without them, the Town would not have enough water for its customers. The Wells 5 & 6 project is nearing design completion and requires funding for engineering bid & construction oversight and well infrastructure construction. Well 4 requires test well drilling, permitting, production well drilling & pumping test, engineering design, bid, & construction oversight and well construction. The combined projects would increase capacity by ~1.05 million gallons per day (MGD)—water that could boost housing and mixed-use development in town. All 3 of these wells pump directly to the new $11 million, 2.5 MGD drinking water treatment plant (WTP) to remove iron and manganese. The WTP was placed into operation February 2020 and has provided exceptional potable drinking water to Norton customers ever since. Previously, about 80% of water customers experienced brown water discoloration. The new plant was instrumental in regaining the public’s trust and confidence in the water system. The Town of Norton wants to build on that trust and confidence by continuing to enhance the water system with these much-needed water infrastructure improvement projects, the impacts of which will be realized system-wide. By receiving Community Project Funding for these projects, construction would be expedited and not burden Norton’s current customers with water rate increases to fund these much-needed improvements.</p><p><strong><a href="/imo/media/doc/Norton%20Wells%204%2C%205%2C%20and%206%20replacement%20Appropriations.pdf" data-entity-uuid="d94dd627-8573-4186-bc16-ea62572de119">Member Certification Letter</a></strong></p><p>_________________________</p><p> </p><p><strong>Project:</strong> Plainville Critical Water Needs</p><p><strong>Amount of Request</strong>: $1,500,000</p><p><strong>Project sponsor:</strong> Town of Plainville</p><p><strong>Address including street name, city, state and zip code:</strong> E Bacon St, Plainville, MA 02762</p><p><strong>Project description:</strong> Plainville’s existing water system is currently over capacity. To meet current and future demand, the water treatment plant needs to be expanded to twice its current capacity. This funding will allow for planned development including The Reserve at Heather Hill, a 384-unit residential complex, and Thermo Fisher, a life sciences manufacturing facility, within the Town to continue. Without the additional treatment capacity, the Town would be forced to halt approval of both housing and business expansions. By doubling capacity at the plant, the Town would be positioned to provide water to planned housing and business projects to allow them to proceed for at least 10 years.</p><p><strong><a href="/imo/media/doc/Plainville%20Critical%20Water%20Needs%20Approps.pdf" data-entity-uuid="8770bc6c-4254-4ddb-b449-6a72693b2d04">Member Certification Letter</a></strong></p><p>_________________________</p><p> </p><p><strong>Project:</strong>Bristol Community College’s National Offshore Wind Institute</p><p><strong>Amount of Request</strong>: $2,000,000</p><p><strong>Project sponsor: </strong>Bristol Community College Foundation, Inc.,</p><p><strong>Address including street name, city, state and zip code: </strong>777 Elsbree Street, Fall River, MA 02720</p><p><strong>Project Description:</strong> Bristol has identified a significant gap in workforce skills and training and needed career pipeline support for the offshore wind industry. The National Offshore Wind Institute (NOWI) was developed in response to address these gaps and industry and supply chain needs including the important Global Wind Organization (GWO) Basic Safety and Basic Technical training required for offshore wind workers. The NOWI will offer GWO and other required accreditations, skill development for the workforce pipeline, and customized private sector training for the developers, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and supply chain companies. The NOWI will offer professional development training, focused on skills and competencies required for careers in the offshore wind industry, with connections to the Bristol academic offshore wind associate degree and certificate. The NOWI will also provide entrepreneurs, small businesses, and existing sectors with innovation and business development support. </p><p><strong><a href="/imo/media/doc/Bristol%20Community%20College%20Offshore%20Wind%20Institute%20Approps.pdf" data-entity-uuid="a4f57a3a-6abe-41d5-bc29-919416cbaed3">Member Certification Letter</a></strong></p><p>_________________________</p><p> </p><p><strong>Project: </strong>Manet Community Health Center Satellite Clinic in Attleboro</p><p><strong>Amount of Request</strong>: $500,385</p><p><strong>Project sponsor:</strong> Manet Community Health Center </p><p><strong>Address including street name, city, state and zip code: </strong>110 West Squantum Street, Quincy, MA 02171</p><p><strong>Project Description:</strong> Attleboro and the service area’s residents have high rates of asthma, diabetes, and several types of cancer.
