The North Cornwall Township Board of Supervisors approved a bid of $35,430 from Palmyra-based Custer Excavating for manhole installation and modifications in conjunction with the new Dairy Road Pump Station.

Supervisor William Yeagley was absent.

The bid was for a revised version of the project to use battery power instead of permanent electric, after original bids for the manhole and conduit installation project came in at $60,000 over budget and were rejected.
