Скачать или смотреть Duquesne Light Company Installs Wetland on Former Cheswick Generating Station Site

DLC hosted a ribbon cutting to celebrate the completion of a wetland that is treating groundwater on the site of the former Cheswick Generating Station before running safely into Tawney Run in Springdale Township.

For many years, Springdale was nicknamed “Power City” because of the presence of DLC’s power plants in that community. DLC sold Cheswick in 1999, but many locals still called it the “Duquesne Light Power Station.”

DLC is in discussions with Springdale to lease the property to Springdale and to donate additional adjacent unused legacy properties to the township.

Springdale plans to leverage federal and state grants and environmental funds to turn the former industrial property into an environmental, educational and recreational area to attract families and economic development to Springdale.

Phipps Conservatory and the Heinz Endowment are already involved in planning and potential grant support.
