Watershed District
The Watershed District consists of valuable natural resources such as woodlands, agricultural soils, floodplains, wetlands, aquifer recharge areas and areas of steep slopes. The Watershed District also includes Lake Galena, a popular recreational area, and the source for public water supply to the Forest Park Water Treatment Plant located downstream of Lake Galena near the confluence of the North Branch Neshaminy Creek and Pine Run. For these reasons, uses are permitted in both type and intensity which provide the maximum opportunities for open space in order to protect the natural resources in the watershed, including Lake Galena. Single-family detached and watershed conservation subdivisions are permitted, provided that sewage disposal methods shall replenish the water table in accordance with the Township's Sewage Facilities Plan and sewage management ordinances. Additional design criteria will be required in order to less then impact of point and non-point discharges in the watershed. In addition, the design and layout of open space, stormwater management facilities and the buildable areas shall be designed to achieve Best Management Practices BMPs and be compatible with other uses in the Watershed District.; Within the Watershed District, a building may be erected, altered or used and a lot or premises may be used only when in conformance with the conditions of this Part and the specific use, area and design regulations of this District.
