The Municipality of Mississippi Mills (Municipality) is initiating a Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for this project. Click on the link below to read the full posted notice.
Almonte Wastewater Treatment System Expansion
Thanks for coming to our Public Information Centres (PICs)!
The next PIC is planned to be held online in November. Join our mailing list to get notified of more details.
The Municipality has initiated two Environmental Assessments (EAs) in support of the expansion of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and Gemmill's Bay Pumping Station (GBPS). As stated in the 2024 Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Master Plan, the WWTP and the GBPS are both in need of upgrades. The master plan showed that as Almonte grows in population, the existing infrastructure needs to be upgraded to manage the increasing demands from those new residents. In Ontario, when a Municipality wants to increase the capacity of their pump stations or their treatment plants, they need to complete an EA. These assessments play a crucial part in how the upgrades are chosen and what they will eventually look like. To complete these EAs, the Municipality has hired the services of CIMA+ Canada Inc who will be managing the process from start to finish. They will be working closely with staff to determine the current state of the treatment systems and to develop a suitable plan for the future. Please stay tuned to this page for notices for upcoming events and opportunities to participate.
Three Public Information Centres will be hosted for this project, the first of which was held on June 4 at Almonte Old Town Hall.
