Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick awarded the Town of Arlington a competitive $39,580 grant to improve water quality in Alewife and Mill Brooks. Through the 604B grant, the Town of Arlington, Mystic River Watershed Association and Town of Belmont will evaluate existing conditions and identify opportunities for installation of green infrastructure to treat polluted stormwater. The team will evaluate the Mill Brook and Alewife Brook sub-watersheds using water quality data and Geographic Information System (GIS) and then identify sites that would be amenable to installation of green infrastructure.
