Wasauksing First Nation Peatland Wastewater System Design & Construction

in progress

The project will design and construct a new wastewater treatment system in the Wasauksing First Nation in Ontario. The work will include: a pre-design investigation to ensure the system will not overflow into the surrounding environment; construction of a lift station, a septic tank and four wastewater treatment cells; installation of wastewater piping, programming of controls for the new lift station; and decommissioning of the existing system. The project will prevent the release of contaminants into the environment due to overflows, increase capacity to meet growing demand and federal and provincial requirements, and reduce operation and maintenance costs.
