Sewage System Upgrade for Springwood Cottage Resort - Central Frontenac

Official title: 2796017 Ontario Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)

Closed Regulations & Permits Environment & Climate
A cottage resort near Arden, Ontario wants to upgrade its sewage treatment system. The resort currently has nine separate systems handling wastewater from various cottages. They're proposing to consolidate these into one modern treatment system that can handle about 25,600 litres of sewage daily.

Why This Matters

Live near Blue Heron Ridge in Central Frontenac? This permit affects how sewage gets treated at a local resort. If you rely on well water nearby, you might want to know how this system will protect groundwater.

What Could Change

If approved, the resort could install a new consolidated sewage treatment system. Three existing systems would be decommissioned. The new system would use anaerobic digestion and biofilter technology before discharging treated water underground.

Key Issues

  • Should the resort be allowed to consolidate nine sewage systems into one larger treatment system?
  • Is the proposed treatment technology adequate to protect local groundwater?
