| WELCOME TO MERRIMACK VILLAGE DISTRICT |
Our Water Many people naturally assume our water comes from nearby rivers or lakes. Merrimack, however, is unique in that 100% of our drinking water comes from groundwater. Our water distribution system begins with seven ground water wells located in various parts of Merrimack and Hollis. Your water is pumped from one of these wells, treated on-site then pumped to one of three water tanks in town. From here, it is distributed through a network of over 150 miles of water mains to homes, businesses and schools. Billing and Payments Bills are sent on a quarterly basis to the property owner and include three components: actual water usage, a meter charge, and a fire hydrant fee. The hydrant fee is used to repair and maintain all hydrants and applies to any home within 600 feet of a hydrant whether or not you are an MVD customer. Payments may be made by mail, online, by Phone, or in person, between hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. New Customers New customers pay a one time Transfer Fee of $35.00. You will see this fee on your first water bill. Please call with any questions. For Septic System Owners Older or poorly maintained septic systems can pose a threat to ground water. Be sure to have yours inspected by a licensed contractor and have the tank pumped at least every three years. |
