The preparation of this report was funded through federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA), as well as by DVRPC's member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies.
Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency which provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning for the orderly growth and development of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties as well as the City of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer counties in New Jersey. The Commission is an advisory agency which divides its planning and service functions between the Office of the Executive Director, the Office of Public Affairs, and three line Divisions: Transportation Planning, Regional Information Services Center, which includes Regional Planning Office, and Finance and Administration. DVRPC's mission for the 1990s is to emphasize technical assistance and services and to conduct high priority studies for member state and local governments, while determining and meeting the needs of the private sector.
The DVRPC logo is adapted from the official seal of the Commission and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River flowing through it. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. The logo combines these elements to depict the areas served by DVRPC.

Public water and sewer systems are two of the most important infrastructure facilities in attracting growth and development. Without an adequate public water supply and sufficient sewage treatment capacity significant development cannot take place. In the Delaware Valley nine-county region, public water and sewer service is provided at the local level by over 300 private companies, municipal departments and authorities. Securing information on the service areas. capacities and operations of these faclities has been difficult for the planners, deveiopers and engineers who require this information for both short and long-range planning. Although regulated by both state and federal agencies, comprehensive summary information on public water and sewer facilities has previously been unavailable.
The purpose of this report, therefore, is to identify and inventory each of these water and sewer facilities. For each county, a water and sewer inventory is included which identifies the following major elements for each facility:
1. municipalities served; 2. maximum capacity; 3. average daily flows; 4. excess capacity; and 5. expansion plans, if any.
Additionally, each county report includes two maps: one showing existing and proposed water service areas and the second showing existing and proposed sewer service areas. Each map is at the scale of 1" to 4 miles and can be reproduced in black and white or color.
INVENTORY USES
This water and sewer inventory has several important uses. First, the inventory will serve as a data base which can be easily updated at any point in time. This data base can be easily used by the public and private sectors to quickly ascertain the status of water and sewer facilities in a given area.
Second, this inventory will be useful to counties and municipalities during development proposal reviews and in capital facilities planning. For example, when a municipality reviews a development proposal, the inventory will allow the reviewer to determine if adequate public water and sewer facilities exist to support the development. If the facilities are inadequate, the municipality can negotiate with the developer for adequate facilities
1
and/or include improvements to the public water and sewer systems in future budgets and capital facilities programs. Municipalities can also use the inventories to revise their planning documents to channel growth into those areas that do have adequate facilities or to limit growth in areas without adequate infrastructure.
The water and sewer inventory will also be important to DVRPC's 2020 land use and transportation planning efforts. The DVRPC's 2020 Land Use Plan will identify potential growth areas in the region. The sewer and water inventory will be useful in identifying these areas and in determining if current or proposed facilities will be adequate to support forecasted growth in the year 2020.
SOURCE OF DATA
The data for the county water and sewer inventories and maps was gathered from a variety of sources as identified on each inventory and map. Each facility was initially identified by reviewing Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources (DER) and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Energy (DEPE) computer records of each permitted facility in the nine-county region. Those facilities which service institutions, commercial, and industrial uses were not included in the study. Each county planning commission/department was then contacted to determine if they had a countywide inventory. Amongst the nine counties, four had done sewer facility inventories, however they all needed to be updated and four had water facility inventories, three of which needed to be updated. The remaining counties had no water or sewer inventories available.
The next step was to contact each water and sewer facility operator in those counties with no or outdated inventories. The level of information varied tremendously from one operator to the next. In general, most operators were able to provide us with the inventory information we needed. However, the mapping information was harder to obtain. Most of the service area boundaries were obtained by examining maps showing the system's pipe locations or by the facility operator's description of service area boundaries. in some cases, the counties had maps which only required a minimum amount of updating. The sewer service area maps in Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester counties were obtained from the Tri-County Water Quality Management Board which updates its maps on an ongoing basis.
Although every attempt was made to accurately map service area boundaries, these maps should not be used as the sole source in determining if a specific site lies within a water or sewer service area. The local facility operator should always be contacted for this purpose. It is also important to remember that not only do water and sewer flows fluctuate daily, but they can change substantially if one or more new developments connect into the system. The local operators also indicated expansion plans, however in many cases the dates of future expansion was undecided, depending on future demand. Therefore, this data should be updated on a continual basis.
2
The inventory of public water and sewer facilities is provided by county and comprises the remainder of this report. Two reports are available: 1) one which inventories the facilities in the Pennsylvania counties of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia; and 2) one which inventories the facilities in the New Jersey counties of Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer. The service area maps which accompany this report must be requested from DVRPC separately.

The Federal Safe Drinking Water Act authorizes states to implement and enforce a public water supply program. These programs are designed to regulate the construction, operations and maintenance of all potable water systems. In Pennsylvania, these programs are administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources (DER). All water purveyors must receive permits from DER to operate water facilities and/or to withdraw water from groundwater or surface sources.
Although DER licenses these facilities, the Delaware River Basin Commission also has some regulatory authority in water diversions. The Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) has an adopted Water Resources Program which monitors and regulates the quality and quantity of water resources within the Delaware Basin (includes the entire nine-county region of the DVRPC).1 One of the DRBC's program elements includes the investigation of water resource projects proposed by public and private entities. The DRBC Project Review Branch reviews applications for compliance with DRBC's policies and Comprehensive Plan. Projects reviewed by DRBC include those involving groundwater and/or surface water withdrawal, discharge to surface or groundwaters and regional wastewater treatment plants. The DRBC must issue permits for these projects along with the PADER.
Within the Pennsylvania portion of the DVRPC region, the DRBC has identified the Southeastern Pennsylvania Groundwater Protected Area as a problem area.
Southeastern Pennsylvania Groundwater Protected Area
In 1981, a special regulatory program was established by DRBC to control the overuse of groundwater in a 1,500 square mile region of Southeastern Pennsylvania. The protected area includes all of Montgomery County, 36 non-waterfront municipalities in Bucks County, 25 municipalities in southern and northern Chester County, three townships in eastern Berks County and one in southern Lehigh County.
The protected area designation subjects all new groundwater withdrawals averaging over 10,000 gallons per day (gpd) during any month to special regulations. Additionally, any existing withdrawal which is enlarged to 10,000 gpd or more is subject to the special regulations. The special regulations require applicants to submit to DRBC documented proof that the groundwater basin or aquifer will not be adversely impacted by the increased withdrawals.

DEFINITION OF WATER SUPPLY DATA
Water Supplier IMunicipalities Served
This column lists the name of the organization responsible for supplying the water to its customers> and the municipalities within the water supplier's service area. As the service area maps show, although an entire municipality may be within a water supplier's service area, (known as a Franchise Area) only portions of that municipality may actually be supplied at the current time.
Domestic Population Served
This data represents the actual number of residents within the water supplier's service area who receive public water. Commercial, industrial and some institutional users are not included in this data. In some cases the domestic population may actually exceed the 1990 Census population for the municipalities within the water supplier's service area. This is due to the fact that many regional water suppliers may not be able to accurately separate domestic population by municipality or even county, since their metering systems may cross municipal and county boundaries.
Average Daily Water Use
This column represents the average daily amount of water supplied by the water supplier to its customers at the time the data was collected. This number can fluctuate widely depending on local conditions, such as time of the year, fire fighting emergencies, and the condition of the system. This data should always be updated when any water planning efforts are undertaken.
Supply Capacity
Although the PADER regulates maximum water diversions, maximum withdrawals actually depend upon the capabilities of the water supplier's equipment (supply capacity cannot be higher than the DEP permitted diversion). The quantity of water supplied cannot exceed the design capacity of the system's pumping equipment or treatment plant.
Excess Capacity
Typically a sewer or water system is said to be at capacity when 80% of its design capacity is.reached. Therefore the excess capacity column is the difference between 80% of the system supply capacity and its average daily use. Since excess capacity is based on average daily use, it can fluctuate daily.
6
For the purposes of analyzing excess capacity, the water industry standard of 100 gallons of water per day should be used. Therefore, a three-person household requires 300 gallons of water a day. Using this approximation, a 100-unit residential subdivision requires approximately 30,000 gallons of water per day (.030 mgd).

BUCKS COUNTY WATER SUPPLY INVENTORY
Public water is supplied to approximately 456,000 persons or 84% of Bucks County's total population. Forty-six of the county's 54 municipalities are at least partially served by public water systems. The following municipalities rely on private wells as their only source of water.
Bridgeton Township Durham Township Haycock Township
Nockamixon Township Plumstead Township Tinicum Township
Upper Makefield Township Wrightstown Township
Bucks County residents receive water from a combination of surface water and groundwater sources. Approximately 40% of all residents receive water from the county's 35 major groundwater supply systems, including 137 wells and 12 springs.
Additionally, most public water systems which rely primarily on surface water as their supply source also use wells to augment their system or for emergency back-up. Surface water sources in Bucks County include the Delaware River, Neshaminy Creek and manmade impoundments on the Ironworks Creek and Smoketown Creek.
Service Area
Most of the county approximately east of Route 232 has public water. Additionally, the older boroughs, including Doylestown, Chalfont, Perkasie and Quakertown receive public water. Several areas including the Newtown area, the Doylestown/Warrington area and Silverdale may be connected to a public water system in the future. Public water service (existing or future) is sporadic throughout the remainder of the county and almost nonexistent north of Route 313.
The following table provides water supply information for all of Bucks County's 35 community water systems. As the table shows, most of the public water systems are small and service a limited number of municipalities. However, the county does have several large water suppliers, such as the Bucks County Water and Sewer Authority and the Lower Bucks County Joint Municipal Authority, who provide bulk water sales to several water suppliers. For this reason, several municipalities receive water from more than one supplier.
The data in the Bucks County Water Inventory was obtained by contacting each water purveyor directly, ,and is current as of February 1992. The list of purveyors was obtained from the Bucks County Planning Commission.:!

CHESTER COUNTY WATER SUPPLY INVENTORY
Unlike the other Pennsylvania counties in the DVRPC region, Chester County's public water systems consist primarily of small private companies which were designed to service a specific residential development. The county's 1991 inventory includes 99 community systems, of which 58 have less than 100 service connections.3 Most of these facilities were designed to service specific developments and probably cannot be expanded. It is anticipated that, as the county continues to develop, larger water suppliers will purchase the smaller companies and provide more regional-type service.
Most of the county's public water purveyors rely on wells as their sole source of water. A few of the larger purveyors also receive water from surface sources such as the Octorara Creek and Susquehanna River.
The County inventory is based on each water purveyor's Annual Water Supply Report (AWSR) which must be submitted to DER. The DER does not require the AWSR to include data on population served or data which would allow calculation of excess capacity.
Based on the AWSR, only 67 of Chester County's 73 municipalities are at least partially served by a public water system. The eight municipalities which have no service are:
Elk Township London Britain Township
Service Area
Modena Borough New London Township
Upper Oxford Township West Marlborough Township
The map which accompanies the Chester County Water Facilities Inventory does not differentiate between areas of the county which currently have public water service and those that may be served in the future. The map shows "service area/franchise boundary." The franchise boundary designates the area in which the water purveyor is legally allowed to supply water; this service mayor may not currently exist. As the accompanying map shOWS, primarily only the eastern section of the county is included within a service area/franchise boundary.

DELAWARE COUNTY WATER SUPPLY INVENTORY
Delaware County is served by six water companies, two of which provide service to two small subdivisions of less than 100 customers. Together these companies provide public water service to most Delaware County residents. Although several western municipalities are not now served in their entirety, they are all part of a franchise area.
According to the Delaware County Planning Department (DCPD) approximately 65% of Delaware County's water comes from sources outside Delaware County.4 The County's primary source of water is surface water from Octoraro Creek, Crum Creek, Chester Creek, Ridley Creek, and the Susquehanna River. Only the Media Water Company uses groundwater.
The Philadelphia Suburban Water County (PSWC) is one of the largest water purveyors in the region. The PSWC has an average daily water use of approximately 87 mgd of which approximately 40 mgd goes to Delaware County customers. However, the PSWA's total supply capacity is approximately 122 mgd. Water for Delaware County customers is treated at PSWC's treatment plants in Springfield Township, Delaware County and Pickering and Upper Merion Township in Montgomery County.
Service Area
The entire county lies within a water franchise/probable future service area. Approximately two-thirds of the county's land area is located within an existing water supply area. Future water service will be provided in the western municipalities as development warrants.
The following water supply data was obtained from the individual water purveyors during the Spring of 1992.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY WATER SUPPLY INVENTORY
Approximately 90% of Montgomery County's 62 municipalities are at least partially served by a public water system, with service provided to 43% of the population. Additionally, as the map shows, many municipalities in the east are served in their entirety. However, most western municipalities have little or no service. The following municipalities have no public water service:
Green Lane Borough Marlborough Township
New Hanover Township Salford Township
Upper Frederick Township Upper Salford Township
Twelve of the county's 19 public water purveyors receive 100% of their water supply from wells, while three purveyors rely on surface water (primarily the Schuylkill River) as their only source of water. The remaining water companies rely on a combination of surface and groundwater for their water supplies.
The following water supply inventory was obtained from data collected by the Montgomery County Planning Commission.5
Service Area
Only the eastern half of Montgomery County (from approximately Route 363 to the eastern boundary) is completely served by public water. West of Route 363, public water service is primarily available in the areas of Pottstown, the Route 422 corridor, and within the area of the Northeast Extension in Franconia and Lower Salford. The remainder of the county lies within a franchise area and will probably receive public water service in the future.

Large scale development cannot take place without adequate public sewage facilities. The coordination of land use and public sewage facilities is an important element of growth management. In Pennsylvania, this coordination process takes place through local Act 537 Plans.
PENNSYLVANIA ACT 537 PLANS
The "Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act" of 1965 (P.L.1535, No. 537) requires Pennsylvania municipalities to develop and implement comprehensive plans concerning the municipality's existing and future sewage disposal needs. These plans must be approved by PADER before a wastewater treatment plant can be built, improved or rerated. All new development must be in conformance with the Act 537 Plan. It is through these plans that a municipality's future wastewater disposal needs can be determined and existing and proposed sewer service areas identified. However, not all municipalities have Act 537 Plans. Those that are fully developed and do not anticipate any changes in their sewage disposal needs or those municipalities with no public sewage facilities may not have Act 537 Plans.
The PADER must issue a permit for the construction, improvement or re-rating of a wastewater treatment plant. The permit is based, in part, on the municipalities Act 537 Plan.
19
DEFINITION OF SEWAGE TREATMENT DATA
Sewage Treatment Facility/Municipalities Served
This column lists the name of the facility responsible for sewage treatment and the municipalities it services. Unlike water service (franchise) areas, sewer service areas are specific locations which comply with an Act 537 Plan in Pennsylvania.
DER Rated Capacity
Each wastewater treatment facility in Pennsylvania must receive a permit from DER to operate. This permit regulates the quantity of sewage which can be treated and the quality of the effluent which can be discharged into local bodies of water.
Excess Capacity
Typically a sewer system is said to be at capacity when 80% of its design capacity is reached. With many sewage treatment systems in this inventory, the excess capacity is calculated as the difference between 80% of the system's supply capacity and its average daily use. However, if a specific excess capacity was identified by the sewage treatment facility operator, that figure was used even if it was not based on 80% of design capacity. The source of the excess capacity data is noted for each facility.
In general, the average dwelling unit generates approximately 250 gallons of wastewater a day. Using this general rule-of-thumb, a sewage treatment facility would need an excess capacity of 25,000 gallons per day (.025 mgd) to treat a 100-unit residential development.
Expansion Plans
The data on expansion plans includes only those improvements which would increase the capacity of the sewage treatment facility. This column does not include information on improvements to the local sewer system or modifications which would improve a system's efficiency or the quality of its effluents.

BUCKS COUNTY SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITIES INVENTORY
As the accompanying map shows, the eastern municipalities within Bucks county currently have public sewer services. Additionally, the Warminster area, the Doylestown area, the Sellersville area and the Quakertown area have sewer service. No information on future sewer service areas is available county-wide. The sewer service areas were obtained from a Bucks County Planning Commission map entitled Wastewater Facilities 1990.
The accompanying service area map and the inventory indicate that ten of the county's 54 municipalities have no public sewer service as follows:
Bridgetown Township Durham Township Hackcock Township Langhorne Major Borough Nockamixon Township
Riegelsville Borough Springfield Township Tinicum Township Upper Makefield Township Wrightstown Township
Although the remaining municipalities have public sewer service, the service may be limited to a small area or single development within the municipality.
The following tables provide an inventory of public sewage treatment facilities in Bucks County. The base information was obtained from a report prepared by the Bucks County Planning Commission, however the data was updated by DVRPC through phone calls to each sewage treatment facility in January 1992.6

CHESTER COUNTY SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITIES INVENTORY
Chester County has approximately 22 public and private sewage treatment systems which provide sewer service to 40 of Chester County's 73 municipalities. In many municipalities with public service, the service is limited to a small area or single development. Most of the facilities service two or more municipalities.
The municipalities which do not have public sewer service are as follows:
Birmingham Township East Coventry Township East Marlborough Township East Nantmeal Township East Vincent Township Elverson Borough Franklin Township Highland Township Honey Brook Borough Honey Brook Township London Britain Township
Londonderry Township Lower Oxford Township Newlin Township New London Township Penn Township Pennsbury Township Pocopson Township Sadsbury Township South Coventry Township Thornbury Township Upper Oxford Township
Upper Uwchlan Township Wallace Township Warwick Township West Brandywine Township West Cain Township West Fallowfield Township West Marlborough Township West Natmeal Township West Nottingham Township West Pikeland Township West Sadsbury Township
At this time, a map of Chester County's sewer service areas is not available. The Chester County Planning Commission is in the process of updating their 1985 Wastewater Facilities map. The updated map should be available by Fall 1992.
The following inventory of Chester County's public sewage treatment facilities was obtained from a 1985 Chester County Planning Commission report, which was updated by DVRPC in March 1992.7 Although every effort was made to include new facilities, some that opened between 1985 and 1992 may not appear on this inventory. Along with the updated map, the Chester County Planning Commission is updating its 1985 inventory report which should include any new facilities.

DELAWARE COUNTY SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITIES INVENTORY
Only six of Delaware County's 49 municipalities have limited or no public sewer service. The Delaware County Regional Authority (DELCORA) provides service to all of Delaware County's eastern municipalities. Within DELCORA's eastern region, three authority's collect the sewage and transport it to DELCORA, who in turn, transports it to Philadelphia's southwest treatment plant. Although DELCORA has a treatment plant, it only treats sewage from 12 municipalities in its western region.
The municipalities with limited or no public sewer service are as follows:
Bethel Township Birmingham Township Chester Heights Borough
Concord Township Edgemont Township Thornbury Township
All of these municipalities have plans to provide public sewer service within some areas of their communities in the near future.
The sewer service areas on the accompanying map and the data on the following table were obtained directly from the operators of the sewage facilities.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITIES INVENTORY
As the accompanying map shows, most of Montgomery County's 62 municipalities currently have some public sewer service. Those municipalities in the eastern section of the county are served almost in their entirety, with the exception of the northeast corner of the county.
Existing service is sporadic within the central and western municipalities. However, these areas contain large sections which the county planning commission feels will eventually be sewered. The largest proposed sewer service areas are located within the Route 422 corridor, the Perkiomen Valley and north of Pottstown.
