IRWA has developed a Regional Water Conservation Plan that provides guidelines and minimum standards for water conservation programs in the watershed. It was unanimously adopted by the Ipswich River Watershed Management Council.

IRWA and Mass Audubon produced a Water Conservation Report Card for the 14 communities that use the Ipswich River basin for their public water supply. The Report Card grades each town's performance in six categories related to water use, including water use trends, residential water use, seasonal water use, non-account water, records and reports, and water rates.
