💧 Looking After Your Private Well Water

Details
Published: Thursday, 25 June 2026 13:36
If your home is on a private well, regular water testing is one of the best ways to help protect your drinking water. Water can look, smell, and taste perfectly normal, even when testing is recommended.
 
We've put together this quick reference guide with information on:
✔️ When to test your well water
✔️ What to test for
✔️ What your results may mean
✔️ Where to find additional resources
 
Many water quality concerns can be identified through routine testing, and treatment options are available for most issues. It's also important to remember that private wells are the responsibility of the property owner, including regular testing, maintenance, and any treatment that may be required.
 
We hope you find this resource helpful. 💙

Morvan Road Closed Landfill Environmental Assessment Report

Details
Published: Tuesday, 23 June 2026 12:52

The Town of Shelburne is pleased to share the final Environmental Assessment Report prepared by Dillon Consulting Limited regarding the closed first-generation landfill located at Morvan Road.

The report summarizes environmental investigations completed between July 2025 and Spring 2026, including soil sampling, groundwater monitoring, surface water testing, and a voluntary residential well sampling program. The purpose of this work was to better understand environmental conditions at and around the former landfill site and to provide recommendations for future monitoring and management.

Recognizing the importance of this matter to residents, particularly members of the South End community, the Town is committed to making technical information available in a transparent and accessible manner. To assist with understanding the findings, Dillon Consulting has also prepared an Executive Summary that presents the results in plain language.

Residents are encouraged to review both the Executive Summary and the Full Report. The Town will continue to share information regarding future monitoring activities and next steps as they become available.
