Notice of Study Commencement
Class Environmental Assessment Study and Conceptual Design - William Street Sewage Pumping Station, Tavistock

 

About the study 

Oxford County is initiating a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study that will consider a wide range of Sewage Pumping Station (SPS) and/or collection system upgrade alternatives within the William Street SPS catchment area (refer to Study Area map), in order to select the most appropriate conceptual design concept that will support ongoing wastewater servicing needs to the year 2046.

Class Environmental Assessment Study and Conceptual Design - William Street Sewage Pumping Station, Tavistock

 

About the process

 This notice signals the commencement of this Class EA Study which will define the project; identify and evaluate alternative solutions; and determine a preferred alternative solution in consultation with the public, Indigenous communities and regulatory agencies. Any potential impacts of the SPS upgrade alternatives on social, cultural, economic and natural environments will be evaluated and assessed during the Class EA Study.

 This study is being carried out in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Assessment Act under Schedule B of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (2000, as amended to 2007, 2011, & 2015), which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.

 A Public Information Centre (PIC) to present the Study findings is anticipated to be held later in 2023 and will be advertised as the Study progresses. Upon completion of this study, a Project File Report documenting the process will be submitted to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation, and Parks and made available for public review for a period of 30 calendar days.
