Chanceford requests DEP ACT 537 modification and approves septic‑pumping exemptions for three addresses
Summary
The board asked the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to modify the ACT 537 Plan regarding subdivision testing and septic pumping, and approved septic‑pumping exception waivers for 1326 Furnace Road, 2897 New Bridgeville Road and 2210 Jacobs Road.
The Chanceford Township Board discussed septic‑pumping requirements and requested action from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) at its June 8 meeting.
Chairman Kent Heffner said the board wants Grant Anderson to send a letter to DEP asking that the ACT 537 Plan be modified to address testing requirements for subdivisions and septic‑pumping exemptions. The minutes record that the Supervisors approved septic‑pumping exception waivers for three properties: 1326 Furnace Road; 2897 New Bridgeville Road; and 2210 Jacobs Road. The minutes do not record a mover/second for the exception approvals but state the Supervisors approved the waivers.
In response to a public question from June Ellis about eligibility, Heffner said single homeowners may request an exemption and that the board can approve such requests. The board's request to DEP and the approved waivers were recorded as actions to be implemented by staff.
