The Town of Voluntown is currently experiencing Abnormally Dry Conditions, resulting in many residents experiencing low or dry wells.
Most of Voluntown’s residents have their water supplied by private wells. It is the responsibility of homeowners to test their water and maintain their water system. Sometimes abnormally dry and drought conditions affect these wells. Low water in wells can result in illnesses and water pump failure. For more information on private wells and private wells during abnormally dry and drought conditions, visit our private well resources and FAQ page.
Water sources: Non drinkable water for flushing and washing is available at the Public Works Garage at the end of Gate Street. There is a hose on the side of the building with a sign “Non Potable Water”. Drinkable (potable) water is available at the Pachaug State Forest Mt. Misery camping area (the water pump next to the outhouses).
