Civic submission on accelerated phosphorus compliance
Posted:
Presenting to the Standing Policy Committee on Water and Waste, Riverbank Management and the Environment, we support recommendations to enable accelerated phosphorus compliance at the North End Water Pollution Control Centre (NEWPCC). Together, increased ferric chloride dosing capacity for the Interim Phosphorus Removal Project, as well as increased digester capacity as part of the Biosolids Facilities Project, will ensure critical protections for Lake Winnipeg are included as part of Phase 2 of the NEWPCC upgrade plan. LWF congratulates the City of Winnipeg for taking this evidence-based, phosphorus-first approach.
