Settlement Ends Salatend CONCORD-A Appeal
Newlin Foundation and the township Sewer Authority reach a settlement ending an appeal filed a year ago. The pact requires transferring the outfall pipe effluent from the plant between Station and Concord roads to within 500 feet of Newlin Mill Park's eastern boundary and modifying effluent contents. The agreement goes to the Environmental Hearing Board for approval as a method to resolve the dispute, then revised plans must go to DEA before a construction permit is issued. Construction of the township's first public sewer system is expected to take about two years.
