State pushes for continuing controls of Dover sewer plant
The state urged the Dover Fire District No 1 to impose continuing controls on plant operation to keep future development within environmental standards. The 2.1 million gallon per day facility would serve 15,000 to 35,000 people but could spur growth, prompting calls for limits on new hookups unless Act 250 reviews are completed. Authorities cited potential impacts on services and water quality, with support from Dover officials and concerns from Wilmington officials about funding and regional effects.
