Sewage System Expansion for Lyons Little Austria Campground - Burford
Official title: Lyons Delyn Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)
A seasonal campground in Burford, Ontario wants to add two sewage systems to its existing permit. One serves the pavilion with washrooms and laundry. The other handles a caretaker's dwelling. The Ministry is deciding whether to approve the amendment.
Why This Matters
Live near this campground on Sixth Concession Road? Get your water from a private well? This permit could affect groundwater in your area. Septic systems that aren't properly designed can contaminate nearby wells.
What Could Change
If approved, the campground can operate expanded sewage systems handling up to 22,130 liters per day total. The pavilion system and caretaker dwelling would be formally added to the Environmental Compliance Approval.
Key Issues
- Should the campground be allowed to add two more sewage disposal systems to its permit?
