| About CCSWA |
 |
| The Chester County Solid Waste Authority
was established by the Chester County Commissioners in August 1984.
That same year, the CCSWA became the owner and operator of the Lanchester
Sanitary Landfill whose 600-acre property (Landfills cover 160 acres) is located in
Honey Brook, Salisbury and Caernarvon Townships in southeastern Pennsylvania.
The Authority is comprised of volunteer Chester County business persons and one representative from Caernarvon Township, Lancaster County. All members of the Authority serve without compensation or benefits. For more information on the Authority and its members click here for the Annual Report 2008. |
