Victoria, BC - “I’m pleased to say that the Wastewater Treatment Project has responded to residents’ concerns about the loss of trees and has found a way to construct the Residual Solids Conveyance Line that doesn’t require the removal of any trees on Grange Road. The pipe will now be installed on the west side of the street. We want to thank the community for sharing their concerns and for their patience during construction.” Elizabeth Scott, Deputy Project Director, Wastewater Treatment Project.
An information sheet with more information about Grange Road is available here.
About the Wastewater Treatment Project
The Wastewater Treatment Project will provide tertiary treatment for wastewater from the core area municipalities of Victoria, Esquimalt, Saanich, Oak Bay, View Royal, Langford and Colwood, and the Esquimalt and Songhees Nations. The Project will be built so we comply with federal regulations by the end of 2020, and consists of the McLoughlin Point Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Residuals Treatment Facility at Hartland Landfill, and the conveyance system that will carry wastewater from across the core area to the McLoughlin Point Wastewater Treatment Plant, and residual solids to the Residuals Treatment Facility.
