GRAND FALLS-WINDSOR, N.L. – The Town of Grand Falls-Windsor is proposing an expansion of its wastewater treatment facility.
The project will mean new infrastructure to address a future increase in the amount of wastewater that needs to be treated as well as to improve the effluent quality, an environmental assessment bulletin issued by the Department of Municipal Affairs and Environment today, Oct. 4, stated.
The expansion will include the addition of a wastewater aerated pond system that would incorporate two to three new aerated cells, an ultraviolet (UV) disinfection treatment system and a sludge management system.
The public has until Nov. 8 to comment on the project. The deadline for Municipal Affairs and Environment Minister Andrew Parsons to make a decision is Nov. 16.
