WHAT’S NEW
Response to the May 21, 2025 NH Journal Article
Is Pennichuck Water Board Poised to Approve Selling Nashua’s Water Supply to Chinese Company? – NH Journal
In response to the above reference article, Pennichuck Corporation, comprising its subsidiaries Pennichuck Water Works, Inc. and Pennichuck Water Services Corporation (Pennichuck), is not for sale and no property owned by Pennichuck is for sale or lease. Additionally, no water rights are for sale or being released by Pennichuck.
The property and proposed development referenced in the NH Journal article is situated within the public water service area of Pennichuck, and the existing facility is a customer of Pennichuck. As the public water utility, Pennichuck is obligated to provide water service to this property in accordance with New Hampshire laws and regulations. Pennichuck is aware of the intended use of the existing facility. Pennichuck technical staff participated in two informational utility meetings that were also attended by electric and sewer providers, which are part of typical due diligence by property buyers. The Pennichuck treatment facility has the capacity to serve the project demand for the proposed use, within existing withdrawal limits from Pennichuck Brook and the Merrimack River and treatment plant capacity.
As of this date the project developer has not yet filed a formal application for service. The project developer may be required to complete offsite improvements to Pennichuck’s water distribution system facilities if project water demand exceeds the capacity of the distribution system.
For further information about the Pennichuck operations and water systems, please contact John Boisvert at 800-553-5191 ext. 2328 or via email at john.boisvert@pennichuck.com.

Water Restrictions
Pennichuck continuously monitors drought conditions in the State of New Hampshire using the United States drought map(PDF). We make decisions regarding the implementation and enforcement of water restrictions in each individual system based upon the data from this map, as well as our own data from each system. Many different factors go into the decision of implementing Water Restrictions. In order to ensure sufficient water is available to meet indoor domestic and consumptive water needs for all of our customers, it is vitally important that you always follow water restrictions in your area. Visit My Water System to see what your system’s current water restrictions are. If you have any questions regarding water restrictions, please call our Customer Service line at 800-553-5191.
