Ear Falls Low Lift Pumping Station Improvements Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA)

Share

Print page

Background

The Township of Ear Falls initiated the MCEA for improvements at the low lift pumping station (LLPS). Drinking water is sourced from the English River through an intake pipeline that terminates in the existing LLPS situated near the shoreline. During seasonal periods of low water, the LLPS loses prime, causing difficulties with pump operation and the supply of raw water to the Water Treatment Plant.

The study is being undertaken as a Schedule B project in accordance with the requirements of the MCEA. Since publishing the Notice of Commencement, the Township has completed Phase 1 (identify problem or opportunity) and Phase 2 of the MCEA (identify alternative solutions).
