Sanitary Sewer System

The Borough of Denver maintains a sewer collection system that flows wastewater from the Borough to the IMG interceptor. The majority of the Borough’s collection system is a gravity feed system. The Borough does have two (2) pressure systems in the Denver Heights Development and on South 4^th Street that pumps sewage into the Borough’s gravity system.

This sewage then flows through the interceptor to the Sewer Treatment Plant #2 located at 43 Springhouse Road, Ephrata, PA, where the sewage is treated. Treatment Plant #2 is operated by Ephrata Borough and treats sewage flows from Denver Borough, East Cocalico Township, and Ephrata Township.
