Trexlertown Act 537 – Special Study

Trexlertown Act 537 Special Study – Public Comment Period Now Closed

A Special Study is being done to address sewage capacity needs within the Western Lehigh Interceptor (WLI) near Trexlertown. The interceptor experiences dry-day surcharging and wet-weather overflows during intense rain events and Lehigh County Authority has developed alternatives to temporarily address this situation until a long-term solution can be developed during the preparation of the regional long-term Act 537 Plan.
