voiced earlier by theSperryville Community Group, an organization formed shortly after the Health Department warned Sperryville businesses that their Health Permits wouldn’t be renewed unless some alternative was found to dumping sewage directly into the South Fork of the Thornton River.

A Water Quality Management Plan, prepared for Planning District Nine, recommended two types of sewage treatment facilities to solve Sperryville’s problem.

The Sperryville Community Group objected to both proposals as too large and too expensive. The Community Group members argued that Sperryville doesn’t need a sewage treatment system with “growth potential” since Sperryville is in a flood plain and future development is restricted.

They said Sperryville only needed a solution to alleviate the existing problem. The community Group recommended purchasing a tract of land large enough for a community septic field.
