Page "Hanover, New Hampshire" Paragraph 31

The Hanover Water Company supplies water for downtown Hanover from several local reservoirs.

The company is owned by Dartmouth College ( 52. 8 %) and the Town of Hanover ( 47. 2 %), with management by the Town of Hanover under a contract.

In 2000, all full-time company employees became town employees.

In recent years, the town has spent over $ 20 million to upgrade main water lines, and will undergo another $ 6 million project to build a new water treatment plant.

Outside the downtown area, residents rely on private wells that are not maintained by the town.
