Charlestown Septic System Infrastructure Modernization Program

The Town of Charlestown is advancing efforts to protect local water resources through the Septic System Infrastructure Modernization Program. With $600,000 in funding secured with the support of Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, the program assists eligible property owners in upgrading outdated septic systems to modern nitrogen reducing technology. These improvements will significantly reduce pollution entering drinking water supplies and coastal ponds, helping to preserve Charlestown’s environmental quality for future generations.
