Reservoir, Sewage Changes
President John E. Harvey, of the Bellwood Borough Council, has announced plans for replacement of the reservoir, due to its present inadequacy, and also pointed out the requirement, recently enforced by State authorities, which necessitates that all boroughs have secondary sewage disposal plants in order to comply with the pure streams laws.
Mr. Harvey stated that plans are being prepared by the Morris Knowles Engineering Company for the secondary sewage disposal plant which is demanded by the Pennsylvania Sanitary Board, and that these plans would be obtained at a cost of $2400. The project itself is expected to cost in the vicinity of $60,000. Half of the costs of the secondary sewage disposal plant will be borne by the State.
No estimates have yet been made on the cost of replacing the reservoir with a more adequate one.
