On-Lot Septic Information

The East Cocalico Township Ordinance 2003-02 was adopted August 6, 2003 and amended by Ordinance 2004-06 which was adopted May 19, 2004.

Residents with on-lot systems are required to have their on-lot sewage disposal system inspected by a registered pumper / hauler, and followed by regular inspections every 3 years when notified by the Township. The residents have been divided into 3 districts as follows:

  • District #1 Year to Pump: 7/1/25 to 6/30/26; Map
  • District #2 Year to Pump: 7/1/23 to 6/30/24; Map
  • District #3 Year to Pump: 7/1/24 to 6/30/25; Map

In the event that a resident pumps before receiving notice from the Township, they are still required to pump within their mandatory year as shown above.
