Wastewater Service Areas

Belle River / Maidstone Sewage Works

The urban areas between Manning Road and Charron Line Road generally north of the CPR tracks are serviced by a sanitary sewage works system consisting of sanitary sewers, pumping stations and the Denis St. Pierre Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) which is located on Rourke Line. The system was originally developed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment as a Provincial Sewage Works Project that was constructed and built between 1974 and 1981 under a total of ten construction contracts. The system has since expanded to meet the growing the needs of the community.

Stoney Point Sewage Works

The Stoney Point urban area and adjacent lakefront areas are serviced by a wastewater collection and lagoon based treatment system. The first phase of the system was originally constructed in 1978 and included a gravity collection system, two pumping stations and two 14 acre oxidation ponds. The Stoney Point Sewage Treatment Facility (STF) is located on Tecumseh Road west of Little Creek. The collection system was extended in the late 1980's westerly along St. Clair Road towards Rochester Townline Road to service lakefront properties.

Comber Sewage Works

The Comber urban area is serviced by a wastewater collection and lagoon based treatment system. The system was originally constructed in 1974 and includes a gravity collection system, pumping station and two 2.43 ha (6 acre) oxidation ponds. The Comber STF is located in the south-east corner of Comber and accessible from Windsor Avenue.
