Stormwater Management Approval for Industrial Development in Bancroft
Official title: 2425052 Ontario Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)
A company wants to build stormwater management facilities for a new industrial development on Highway 28 in Bancroft, Ontario. The system would collect rainwater runoff through sewers, ditches, and a dry pond before releasing it into a local waterway in the Bay-York River Watershed.
