Walsh will need additional water capacity to be built
Provincetown water system is at capacity, per Ptown Town Manager
"If we didn't undergo a planning process and didn't add additional capacity there isn't sufficient water to accomplish building on the Walsh property now. So, if we didn't explore or build future capacity we wouldn't have enough gallons to support the entire development at the Walsh property given all of the other projects on the pipeline in Provincetown that are already either approved or in our analysis through 2030."

The present and future water supply for Provincetown and Truro is highly dependent on the Walsh property.

Detailed modeling of the aquifer under the Walsh property reveals the critical importance of the entire area to the continued quality of the water pumped from the adjacent municipal water supply at North Union Field.
