Mandatory Water Conservation
Due to lack of precipitation over the last few months RAWA is issuing a Mandatory Conservation Notice. A Mandatory 10 to 15 % water use restriction is requested at this time.
The following are prohibited: watering of lawns and outdoor areas; watering golf courses; washing vehicles, paved surfaces or other outdoor areas, filling or topping off pools or any act of wasting water.
Taking shorter showers, using the dishwasher when it is full, wash only full loads of laundry, shutting off the tap when brushing teeth are some ways of conserving water.
Welcome To Ontelaunee Township
Ontelaunee Township takes its name from the large stream which drains the greater part of the upper eastern portion of the county. “Ontelaunee” is a Native American word meaning “little daughter,” a daughter/branch of the Schuylkill River. The stream was called “Maiden Creek” by the Quakers when they began settling on the land around 1720. “Maiden Creek” is a rough English translation of the Native American word “Ontelaunee”. The Quakers settled on the land surrounding the Maiden Creek’s banks from its mouth to a point Northward more than 10 miles. This land also included the Eastern bank of the Schuylkill River to the Blue Mountain. On April 2, 1849 some of the inhabitants of Maiden Creek Township presented a petition in court asking for a division of the Township. The inhabitants suggested the name “Schuylkill”. The court changed the name to “Ontelaunee” and the new township was erected into a separate election district by Act passed on February 28, 1850.
