Your Sewer Commission meets on Tuesday nights on a posted monthly schedule. All meetings are open to the public and are held in the Joseph L. DeLuca Conference Center at the Treatment Facility located off South Main Street in the Town of Hopedale.
We issue permits for connection to our sewer system after careful review for compliance to all rules and regulations. We license all Drain Layers doing work in the Town of Milford. The firm of Tata & Howard, Incorporated is our Engineering Consultant with Jack O'Connell as its representative.
The budget established for the Sewer Department operation is funded through "sewer user fees" as established and mandated by the Enterprise Fund Act adopted by the Town in 1982.
Your Sewer Department staff continues to dedicate itself to service and pride in its work, continuing to obtain accreditations and certification in the field of Waste Water Management.
Our Field Service support team inspects pipeline installations and maintains building and permit records at a cost savings to contractors as well as generating revenue income for the Department. They establish scheduled routines of inspection, clean out and testing to keep 60 miles of pipeline and 10 pumping stations in perfect running condition.
Town Meeting voted to allow the Board of Sewer Commissioners to pursue an agreement with the Town of Hopkinton. These negotiations are on-going. The design and engineering of the Huckleberry Brook Interceptor (Purchase Street) is continuing and has been submitted to the State Revolving Relief Fund. Town Meeting also appropriated the sum of $500,000 to be spent on sewering upper West Street. This is a joint effort between the businesses on upper West Street and the Town of Milford to provide sewer to this area of the town.
We, your elected Board of Sewer Commissioners, pursue a variety of funding revenues to expand our customer base. This is the only economic sense for a department that relies totally on monies received from our customers to pay all of our bills which is made possible through the Enterprise Fund. The Board continues to seek out alternatives and expansion of our customer bases and services to provide for the future growth and maintenance of your Sewer Department.
