PIC 2 for Greensville Water Supply System - POSTPONED
The City of Hamilton has initiated a Schedule ‘C’ Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) study for the Greensville Rural Settlement Area (RSA), to provide improvements to the Harvest Road Water Supply System (WSS).
The Drinking Water System is currently supplied by one groundwater-sourced municipal well and pumping/treatment station (FDG01) which is not equipped with a backup water supply, and several components of the existing FDG01 system are reaching end of life. FDG01 is operating safely and effectively, however, it does not meet the City’s current outstation design manual criteria.
In 2022, the City completed a Constructability and Risk Assessment which identified alternatives for a backup water supply. The assessment identified the implementation of a new municipal communal well and pumping station with water storage could provide reliable water supply and quality to the Harvest Road WSS and meet the City’s outstation design manual criteria, while decommissioning FDG01.
The purpose of this study is to determine the preferred servicing scenario with a backup water supply, and the location of the new well and new pumping station within Johnson Tew Park if required.
The Process
This project is being conducted in accordance with the requirements of Schedule ‘C’ projects as outlined in the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment document (2023), which is approved under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act.
How to Participate
A second Public Information Centre (PIC) is being held to present alternative design solutions, evaluation criteria, and the recommended strategy.
