As of April 30, 2024 WBRA will no longer be picking up payments from the borough and township offices. There are several ways to make payments to WBRA.
These options include: USPS, automatic withdrawal from a checking account, payment over the phone or through this website at the top right corner “Bill Pay”. We also have a drop box at the cul-de-sac at the front of our property. Payments (cash, personal checks or credit/debit cards) can also be made in person at our office during normal working hours.
If you have any questions please contact our office. We apologize for an inconvenience this may cause.
West Branch Regional Authority is accepting hauled in Septage and holding tank water on a limit basis at our wastewater treatment facility. We are only excepting residential septic tank waste and sanitary holding tank wastewater. We are NOT accepting fracking waste, portable toilet waste, grease trap waste, or other treatment plant sludge. We do not have a flow meter so volume will be estimated and agreed upon between WBRA and the hauler before unloading. WBRA is only approved for 20,000 gallons per day. Our current price as of January 2022 is $0.045 per gallon. All deliveries MUST call ahead to verify capacity and schedule the delivery. To verify and schedule a delivery, call (570) 419-3604. Receiving hours are from 6:00 a.m. till 2:00 p.m.
Please contact me at jeffs@westbranch-ra.org with any questions.
A recent important groundwater report done by USGS has been released. The WBRA helped the USGS complete the project along with numerous other agencies. The Final Results and Press Release are available here. (more…)
Sewer:
In the event of a sewer backup inside your home, please contact WBRA immediately so we can determine if the source of the problem is in the sewer main. If the problem is in the sewer main, then it is the job of West Branch Regional Authority to address the issue; however, if the problem is occurring on private property, then the owners will need to seek a plumber at their own cost.
Water:
In the case of a water related emergency, it is important to know the location of the water shut-off valve for your home. The water shut-off valve is usually located near your water meter. The water meter is usually located at the point where the water pipe comes through the foundation; usually this is located in a basement or utility room. In the event that you have a pipe break within your home, knowing how and where to shut off your water can help minimize any water damage.
