A.Â
The Township of Chester has within its borders natural conditions,
including but not limited to, topography, soil types, water supply,
drainage, wetlands, marshes and woodlands. It also contains significant
groundwater resources and aquifers.
B.Â
Utilization of off-lot sewage facilities and/or treatment plants
for off-lot use raises air and water pollution problems, noise, damage
to plants, trees, wildlife and related issues.
The Township of Chester meets its residential and commercial
water and sewage needs through the utilization of on-lot private wells
and private septic systems or private treatment plants.
No sewage facility, septic or treatment plant constructed on
a residential or commercial lot in the Township of Chester shall provide
sewage service to any other lot, either in the Township of Chester
or elsewhere. Sewage facilities, septic or treatment plants shall
be restricted for use exclusively for the lot on which the sewage
facility, septic or treatment plant is constructed.
