If the plan is accepted, it then also automatically becomes a part of the county’s 4-year plan. To apply for the state program, Senator Wenger and one of the Supervisors will need to present an executive summary at a public hearing in Carlisle on September 28th.
Pat stated the Ratue Engineering has experience with these types of proposals and that they used to operate the sewer plan. The board approved a motion to hire Ratue to prepare the executive summary for the public hearing.
