Residents describe Mattapan as a center of Black life in Boston. A residential neighborhood in the south part of the city, it's been largely untouched by the kind of development changing the face of so much of Boston.
The Environmental Protection Agency's annual "report card" for Boston’s three major rivers the Charles, Mystic and Neponset gave some As and Bs but highlighted some problems areas. Challenges include sewage overflows, stormwater pollution, low water levels and increased heat from climate change.
Workshops centered on the cleanup of the Lower Neponset River get underway in earnest this week, with the first of three set for Thursday evening in Milton. The session will be both in-person and virtual inside the Milton Council on Aging at 10 Walnut Street starting at 6:15. The other workshops, both in-person and starting at 6:15, will take place in Mattapan on Tues., Nov.
In the wake of the Environmental Protection Agency’s determination last March that the 3.7-mile section of the Lower Neponset River, from the Walter Baker Dam in Lower Mills to the “Mother Brook Confluence” by Hyde Park Avenue, is a “Superfund” site, federal regulators plan a series of workshops in November that will focus on upcoming cleanup operations.
