The municipality is the home of Clear Creek State Park, which is operated and maintained by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
The pump station also shared property with a dam that allowed Callen Run to flow into the Clarion River.
The dam provided water to the engines running the station as well as a trout fishing hatchery built in 1955 and operated and maintained by the Heath Township Sportsmen's Association.
Despite a persistent natural gas odor and pump noise, anglers were undeterred from fishing that portion of Callen Run.
Heath Pump Station stopped compressing gas in 2007, with its building being torn down a decade later.
Though state of the art for its time, its use was supplanted by more modern technology capable of producing more gas more efficiently, and a smaller plant was constructed in the vicinity to replace the Heath Station.
The dam is slated to be eventually removed from the property to allow native trout to swim from the Clarion River back up to Callen Run in warmer weather.
