Business Park 2 - Information

Site Information Profile

Zoning 

There is no zoning within Bedford Township. For all practical purposes, future uses are regulated by the land seller through restrictive covenants and the sell decision.

All Utilities are at curb-side.

Electric

The business park is bisected by a 115 KV main transmission line, with a parallel running 23 KV line operated by Penelec/ FirstEnergy. Requirements up to 7MW are likely to be supported from the 23 KV line. Penelec believes reliability of the service to be high, and have recently upgraded the nearby substation (approx. 1-mile away). Determination of line capacity and the conceptual ability to support the requirement can be determined with a written request which indicates total load requirements.

Gas

UGI Central Penn Gas currently provides a 6″ medium pressure gas main along Country Ridge Rd in Bedford Township. Requirements up to 15,000 CFH can be supported from this gas main with delivery pressures of 2 or 5 # psi. Higher delivery pressures are available upon written request. Additional load capacity is available with upgrades to the existing distribution system. Service reliability is determined as high.

Data/Telecommunications

CenturyLink is a Tier One provider with POP locations in Carlisle and Harrisburg. CenturyLink provides an SLA of a 99.999% reliability rate (less than 6 minutes of downtime a year). CenturyLink can provide both hardwired and path redundancy in support of the property /project, as well as extensive Cloud Services through the Savvis division. In terms for a secondary provider, Comcast/Xfinity Fiber, and offers a practical back-up solution to CenturyLink.

Sewer and Water

The Municipal Authority of the Borough of Bedford has upgraded its system, including treatment plant and line upgrades. As a result, the plant is fully compliant and has practical treatment capacity of approximately 700,000 gallons per day.

Public water is supported by 2 wells with a total system capacity of 500,000 gpd (active draw) and storage capacity of 700,000 gal. The system has sufficient capacity to support cooling and fire suppression requirements on the site, subject to a possible requirement for a small onsite tank.

Lines presently serving the property are 10″ water main line with an 8″ gravity sanitary sewer line, and with the installation of a diverter there is a measure of redundancy. This site has an available approved capacity for water and sewer of 46,672 gpd.
