This episode originally aired in July 2023. We're replaying it for you this week because it's just as timely as ever! Falmouth Town Meeting members will vote on whether to fund a town-wide urine diversion pilot project this coming April, and the broader electorate will weigh in in the May elections.

We're back with another installment of The Great Flush, our series on the Upper Cape's wastewater management reckoning. This week, host and producer Gilda Geist goes on a tour of the Massachusetts Alternative Septic System Test Center, which is partnering with the town of Falmouth to start a urine diversion pilot project. Listen now to join Gilda on her journey of learning more about pee than she could ever have imagined.
