This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Brookline, New Hampshire. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The Town of Brookline seeks a hydrogeological assessment of the aquifers in Brookline to understand the capacity of this resource to support development and identify areas that may need additional protections. Brookline (Town) relies solely on well-water for drinking water. And, we all use the same limited number of underground aquifers to support homes, schools, stores, and industry. As a community, it is critical we are good stewards of this resource and encourage growth in places and manners that keep the long-term health of our water in mind. To protect our drinking water aquifer, we need to know more about the availability of and potential threats to our groundwater resources. The Planning Board seeks to hire a qualified professional hydrogeologist (hereafter referred to as the Consultant) to conduct a hydrogeological assessment within the Town to: identify potential areas of sufficient and insufficient groundwater resources; and assess potential threats to available groundwater resources. The assessment is to include review of available published data of the area from public and private sources to provide a desktop review and summary of available groundwater resources in Town. The findings of the hydrogeological assessment are intended to be used by the Planning Board to revise our Zoning Ordinance. The Planning Board needs accurate, unbiased information about where the Town has adequate water resources to support development and areas where there is a deficit or significant risk of a deficit. In addition, in areas where the aquifer is particularly susceptible to pollutants, the Planning Board may wish to add additional protections to keep drinking water resources safe.
