BOYERS, Pa. (KDKA) — A small Butler County community is days away from something it has wanted for decades: a functioning water treatment plant.
It may not look like much, but the two sewage treatment pits have people very happy in Boyers, Butler County. The pits are part of a federal- and state-funded sewage treatment system. Residents said it's long overdue.
"To make a long story short, we inherited a defunct system," said Jason McBride of the Boyers Township supervisors.
How bad was the system?
"The sewage would back up if we had heavy rains," one resident said.
