Watersheds & Non-profit Associations

The Township has 10 watersheds or aquifers. To find your watershed, you can open two maps from the 2014 Comprehensive Plan. In the map section, Map No. 6, "Water Resources," and Map No. 7, "Aquetong Creek Watershed," indicate where these watersheds lie. Alternatively, you can visit the Township's interactive Geographic Information System (GIS), locate your property, and click on the "Layers" tab in the upper left and select "Watersheds."
