Dye Testing

The Township Engineering firm, Senate Engineering, is leading an effor to ensure the township is in compliance with the EPA and County consent degree. The goal is to reduce the amount of sewage overflow into our rivers. Step 1 of this effort is to have local municipalities repair broken sewer lines, and reduce infiltration of storm water into the sewage system. One of the items is to ensure homes do not have their downspouts connected to the Township sewage system. To validate this, the Township will be working with Senate Engineering to dye test homes in Reserve Township.
