WWTC Septage & Receiving Upgrade

Project Status: Design underway
Expected Completion: April 2026
Contractor: To be determined


The Wastewater Treatment Centre (WWTC) Septage and Receiving Upgrade Project is one of three water/wastewater infrastructure servicing projects. The Town is conducting upgrades to their septage and receiving systems located at the WWTC to treat septic sewage for the town and neighbouring communities. This project will includes

  • a new prefabricated Septage Receiving Station (SRS) complete with septage unloading connection.
  • flow metering, screening and screenings handling equipment.
  • associated mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, and control systems.

This project is needed as the current facility is not equipped to deal with the current septage sewage needs of the area. Upon completion of the Wastewater Treatment Centre Headworks Upgrade Project and the the septage receiving upgrades, the WWTC will have capacity to process the sewage from Midland and neighbouring townships.
