Emmitsburg Adopts Farm Based Sewage System Nears Completion
Emmitsburg moves to a new farm powered sewage plan after state rules pressured a change. Mason Dixon Farms of Gettysburg pioneered the system using four large lagoons and a field irrigation layout funded largely by EPA, with Beavin and Co. designing and Congel-Palensear contracting the project set to finish in spring 1988.
