See OARS’ comments and those of the Massachusetts Rivers Alliance. SWMI is the Massachusetts state environmental agencies’ multi-stakeholder process, begun in January 2010, to improve the way the state manages its water allocations. See the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs SWMI webpage.
