Got a septic notice from York Township? Here's what it means
If your home in York Township (York County) isn't on public sewer, the township regulates your on-lot septic system. Here is what the township itself says:
- York Township adopted an On-lot Sewerage System Ordinance on November 14, 2000. (source)
- The ordinance requires homeowners with an on-lot system to have it pumped and inspected at least every three years by an approved pumper/hauler. (source)
- The pumper/hauler gives the homeowner two copies of the inspection form; the homeowner must return one copy to the York Township Administration Office. (source)
- The township's Sewage Enforcement Officer (SEO) is the primary resource for Act 537 compliance questions. (source)
What to do next
- Find your district and due year on the township's page or notice.
- Book a pumper/hauler the township accepts before your deadline.
- Make sure the pumping or inspection report gets back to the township as it requires.
- Questions about your specific property go to the township office or its Sewage Enforcement Officer.
