The red dye will then travel down the underground culvert on Mather Road to Mather Spur, across Township Line Road and will discharge into Cheltenham Township. This tracing process is being utilized in an effort to establish the discharge point location(s) in Cheltenham Township and assure that they are functioning properly.
