NOCKAMIXON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE: RESIDENT SURVEY

The Fall Nockamixon Newsletter is mailing out to Nockamixon residents this week (mid-October) with a link and QR code to take the online Resident Survey, or you can click here to participate.
HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION EVENT
Saturday, October 26, 8:30 AM to 2:00 PM Rain or Shine
Strayer Middle School
1200 Ronald Regan Road, Quakertown
Click here for what you can bring, or go to www.buckscounty.gov/recycling for more info and other event dates and locations. Please consider taking your pesticides, gas, oil, kerosene, paint thinner, solvents, drain cleaner, antifreeze, automotive and other batteries, weed killers, etc. Household products containing toxic chemicals are harmful to people, pets, and the environment. Never throw these materials into the trash, as the toxic chemicals may harm sanitation workers or result in trash vehicle fires. Do not pour them into a sink or storm drain where they can pollute the water and soil.
RECYCLING AT THE TOWNSHIP AT RISK
Nockamixon is proud to offer a place for residents to recycle cardboard, plastics, and glass, but the program only works with your help. This year contamination of the recycling bins has become such an issue that the Township has repeatedly received additional contamination charges on top of the regular monthly fees. If a recycling bin is contaminated by garbage of any kind -- plastic bags, household garbage, styrofoam, etc. -- the entire bin becomes landfill material! So essentially, the Township is paying high fees just to add to landfills.
PLEASE, only recycle loose, clean, dry plastic and glass bottles and jars - DO NOT PUT THEM IN PLASTIC BAGS! Please flatten your cardboard. If the containers are full, do NOT dump your items in front of them. Take them home and wait for the containers to be empty. Remember:
- No plastic bags! Remove plastics and glass items from bags before placing them in the bin.
- No styrofoam or household trash!
- Flatten your cardboard boxes!
- No loose paper! Please put in a paper bag or cardboard box.
- When in doubt, throw it out.
GROUNDWATER UPDATE
As of 10/15/2024 the Local Hydrologic Status, which monitors drought conditions, has been updated to reflect the recent groundwater level readings. The lower rainfall amounts experienced this Fall has resulted in a change of the precipitation factor from "WATCH" to "WARNING." The other factors remain NORMAL: https://bntgroundwater.org/local-hydrologic-status-report/. Please continue to use water wisely.
