Germantown Park Officials Investigate Illegal Dumping Incidents
Officials at Codorus State Park are asking the public for assistance following the illegal dumping of construction materials within the park. According to a statement released by park authorities, rangers are currently looking into two separate dumping sites that were identified on October 26, 2026. Witnesses reported seeing a white pickup truck towing a black dump trailer leaving the area around 7:30 a.m. on that day. The vehicle is described as a heavy-duty pickup with aftermarket wheels and tires that extend beyond the fenders.
At the two locations, officials discovered a variety of debris, including asphalt roofing shingles, metal flashing, roofing underlayment, and other construction waste, which appeared to originate from several job sites. Photographs shared by the park reveal large piles of debris, predominantly consisting of roofing materials.
In addition to the park’s investigation, North Hopewell Township police are also looking into a similar illegal dumping case. Authorities encourage anyone with information regarding the dumping incidents or who may have seen a vehicle matching the description to come forward.
