The Water and Sewer Department is a municipally owned utility for the residents of Shrewsbury. Our water supply is derived from a series of gravel packed wells pumping over 4 million gallons of water a day. The Sewer Department was started as a separate department in 1963. Wastewater is treated with primary and secondary treatment at the regional Westborough Plant. Water and Sewer Team Photo
