Sewage Treatment Approval for Smokey Hollow Estates - Brant County
Official title: Smokey Hollow Estates Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)
A private wastewater treatment plant in Brant County needs a new Environmental Compliance Approval. The facility at 114 Powerline Road treats sewage from Smokey Hollow Estates and discharges treated water into Fairchild Creek. It can handle up to 62,000 litres per day.
Why This Matters
Live near Fairchild Creek or downstream from this site? The treated wastewater flows into that waterway. If you rely on well water in the area, you might want to weigh in on whether this approval meets your expectations for water quality.
What Could Change
If approved, Smokey Hollow Estates can continue operating its sewage treatment system with official provincial authorization. The approval may include conditions for monitoring, effluent quality limits, and reporting requirements.
Key Issues
- Should this wastewater treatment facility receive approval to discharge into Fairchild Creek?
- Are the treatment methods adequate to protect local water quality?
