Watershed Management District
The Watershed Management District consists of a district within Union Township with limited development potential due to steep slopes, poor suitability for on-lot sewer systems, high soil erosion potential, and limited groundwater availability. For these reasons and because of the presence of threatened and endangered species, extensive forested areas, C-1 Category Streams and associated buffers and the proximity of these areas to the Spruce Run Reservoir, development is limited to single-family detached development on large lots 9 acres for scattered-type development. It is also the intention of this district to make the intensity of development more consistent with the very low-density zoning permitted in abutting municipalities.
