The Town of Georgetown has applied for a modification of its public water allocation which serves approximately 6,400 people in Sussex County.  The application includes nine existing public wells. The requested allocation is 2.376 million gallons (MG) per day, 72.47 MG per month, and 600.0 MG per year.

A public hearing on the above applications will NOT be held unless the Secretary of DNREC determines that a public hearing is in the public interest or if a written meritorious objection to the application is received by November 11, 2019, at 4:30 p.m.  A public hearing request shall be deemed meritorious if it exhibits a familiarity with the application and provides a reasoned statement of the action’s probable impact.
