Well Construction Updates:

We will post notices, progress reports and any relevant information here.

5-7-2024: All tanks have been delivered and installed at all the Well House locations. The next phase will include the delivery and installation of the filter media at each location. Once the filter media is installed, there is a series of testing that is required before the wells are officially turned back online. After all the testing is completed and approved by the Department of Environmental Protection, , our PFOS levels should be at a non-detectable level. The Water Treatment Project is scheduled to be completed by the end of July 2024. If you have any questions about the Water Treatment Project, please contact the Borough Administrator's Office at 201-652-5300 ext. 227.
