Summary

Officials said the Cloverleaf pump station remains on a standby pump while FTMSA prepares to install a basket and has pumps staged; the Crabtree sewer project awaits an intergovernmental cooperation agreement and authorization for engineers to pursue a 537 plan and DEP approvals to qualify for grant funding.

Board members updated residents Aug. 20 on ongoing sewer work. The Cloverleaf pump station is still operating on a standby pump, and supervisors said FTMSA planned to install a basket and had two replacement pumps ready to be installed.

Supervisor Kerry Jobe summarized the Crabtree Sewage Project, saying an intergovernmental cooperation agreement needs finalization before engineers can be authorized to work on a 537 sewage facilities plan. Once the 537 plan is prepared and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, the township would be eligible to pursue grant funding to construct the project.

What happens next: finalize cooperation agreements, authorize engineering work on the 537 plan, submit to DEP, and then pursue grants to fund construction.
