Water Treatment Plant Expansion EA

The Town of Amherstburg is undertaking a Schedule ‘C’ Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for the Amherstburg Water Treatment Plant (AWTP) Expansion. In general, the study objective is to follow the planning process defined under the Environmental Assessment Act to arrive at an environmentally responsible and cost-effective solution to address the need for additional capacity at the AWTP to meet the water demands for ongoing and future developments while complying with regulatory requirements and MECP.

The Municipal Class EA process will allow the public, private sector stakeholders, and government agencies to assist in steering the recommended expansion opportunities in a manner that will benefit the community while fostering responsible land and service development.

During the project, we will be hosting public open houses. These events are designed to provide interested individuals with a deeper understanding of the project, an opportunity to ask questions directly to the project team, and a platform to submit their valuable feedback.

Residents can share their feedback in two ways:

1) ATTEND the Public Open Houses - date, time, and location to be determined

2) EMAIL the Project Lead - feedback can be provided via email to the Project Lead for the duration of the MCEA.
