This report examines how different wastewater-returnflow arrangements could affect groundwater and connected surface waters in Falmouth, Massachusetts. It uses an updated regional groundwater-flow model to compare proposed management scenarios with the conditions represented by recent observations and water-use information.
The study explains the geographic and hydrologic setting before describing updates to the existing model. It compares simulated conditions, evaluates changes associated with alternative returnflow locations, and discusses the assumptions and limitations that shape the interpretation of model results. Maps and tables connect the scenarios to the local aquifer and receiving waters.
Readers will find a technical case study of how groundwater modelling supports municipal wastewater planning. The original report includes methods, results, a summary, references, and links to its associated model data. This is the publisher's revised version 1.1, while the work's first release remains 2025.
