MASSACHUSETTS WATER RESOURCES
AUTHORITY –
EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM
From The
MWRA:
“While
not fire apparatus, the MWRA ESUs are designed to respond to any suspected
incidents of intentional or accidental contamination of the water system that
might result in a shutdown of the MWRA system. The MWRA supplies 62
communities with water for firefighting, drinking and industrial use. Having to
shut down the system would have catastrophic results, so contamination
incidents have to be identified and remediate at once.”
