Discounted Septic System Pumping!

Kingwood Township's Environmental Commission has made arrangements for discounted septic pumping prices for members of our community who sign up at Community Day.  If you haven't had your septic tank pumped in the last
three years, please be sure to come to our table and sign up.  Please consider:  less than $200 to pump, or up to $25,000 and higher to repair or replace your system?  This basic maintenance will save you thousands of dollars and protect the health of your family and neighbors and the environment.  Once you sign up, the pumper will contact you and arrange the pumping date and payment.

The discount price will be $195 per 1,000 gallons.  Additional pumping will be 19.5 cents per gallon.

Access to clean out pipe must be within 100ft of truck

The pumper will not dig to access clean out pipe (if necessary, you need to do this prior to pumper arrival).

On the sign-up sheet, please indicate the approximate location of clean out pipe and the best phone number (cell or work number) to reach person.

Please visit
Septic System Information for Homeowners in Kingwood Township for more details about proper care and preventive maintenance of your private disposal system.  
Performance by the author of the How the Land of Litter Became the Kingdom of Clean!

An entertaining program for the kids that includes original songs about water, recycling, animals, litter prevention and trees.  Dave Street directly involves the audience in 'acting out' the lyrics and as part of telling his stories.   Show times are being finalized- look for them on the Community Day schedule and in the Del Val News.







"As an environmental educator myself, it's refreshing to see someone devoted to presenting informative material in such an entertaining way. Not only was his performance enjoyable, it inspired the students to want to learn more about the environment afterwards."  -Bob Sikora, Education Director, Wildlife Conservation Society
