SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT
PLAN APPROVAL
Plan approval granted under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20).
Water Management Program Manager, Southcentral Region, One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110.
Location: Conewago Township, York County, 490 Copenhaffer Road, York, PA 17404.
The approved plan is the third of three plans addressing the Township. It proposes the continued use of on-lot sewage disposal development in the Township and provided for adoption of a ''Well Drillers Ordinance,'' a ''Holding Tank Ordinance,'' and a modification of the existing Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance. The ordinance modifications address procedures required for new land development proposed in areas identified as having elevated levels of nitrates in the groundwater. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.
Location: Monroe Township, Juniata County, HCR 63, Box 18, Richfield, PA 17086.
