Description
Description | The Addressing Drinking Water Infrastructure Issues Project in the Town of Torbay, Newfoundland and Labrador aims to develop Great Pond as a municipal water supply. The project addresses critical housing and infrastructure needs by ensuring access to safe drinking water for current and future residents and businesses. This will bring significant benefit not only to the residents of the Pineridge area affected by South Pond contamination but also to the existing residents of the Town of Torbay. The project consists of water supply, treatment, and distribution systems including water control structure, intake pipe, water treatment plant, water storage tank and associated access roads. Additionally, a fishway will be incorporated to mitigate potential effects on fish passage due to water withdrawal. The project will enable the construction of 76 new housing units, including affordable and high-density options, to attract diverse individuals and families. The outcome will alleviate pressure on existing infrastructure, support sustainable development, and benefit neighbouring municipalities dependent on the regional water supply. |
