McVean Sanitary Pumping Station upgrades
Notice of completion
December 5, 2023 – Peel Region has completed a Schedule B Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) study to upgrade and expand the capacity of the McVean Sanitary Pumping Station (SPS), in order to service planned growth within the Region of Peel, as well as to upgrade the SPS to comply with current Region design standards.
The project file report will be available until Monday January 8, 2024 for the required 30-day comment period. The PFR documents the MCEA process followed, including a summary of consultation, the identification of existing conditions, alternative solutions, potential impacts, mitigation measures and commitments, and the selection of the preferred alternative.
The Study
Peel Region has identified the need to upgrade and expand the capacity of the McVean Sanitary Pumping Station (SPS), in order to service planned growth within the Region of Peel, as well as to upgrade the SPS to comply with current Region design standards. These upgrades include odour control, grit management, emergency storage capacity, and additional site works needed to help the expansion and upgrades. As a result, a Schedule ‘B’ Class Environmental Assessment (EA) has been initiated to identify a solution for this infrastructure need. The map below shows the area that may be directly impacted by the proposed construction.
The Study Process will include:
- Public and stakeholder consultations;
- An evaluation of alternative solutions;
- An assessment of proposed alternatives; and,
- Identification of methods to lessen the adverse impacts to the community.
How to get involved
As part of the Study, online public engagement has been arranged to allow interested members of the public an opportunity to review and comment on the alternatives, including the preferred alternative, the evaluation process, and next steps in the Study process.
