NEWEA Members Educate Fair-Goers on Water Quality Issues NEWEA members and water professionals from Edgartown WWTF, Martha's Vineyard Commission and Martha's Vineyard Water Alliance volunteered in a NEWEA booth at The 158th Martha’s Vineyard Livestock Show and Fair. Fair-goers were able to stop in the booth and learn about watershed protection. The booth was visited by locals from the region looking for information on the state of their watersheds, as well as off-islanders looking for take-away action to bring home with them.
