Have your say on the sewage treatment proposal

On Dec. 11, the Prospect Lake District Community Association  (PLDCA) co-hosted a successful Informational Dialogue with staff from Seaterra, the company in charge of managing the sewage treatment process on behalf of the Capital Region District (CRD), to gain better understand the details of the CRD’s plans for Hartland.

After hearing Seaterra’s proposal, the PLDCA agreed that sewage treatment is required but feels that the CRD process is flawed and out of control. They are therefore asking the BC government to keep its funding on hold but require an independent review of the plan with “formal engagement of the public to ensure that the final plan is taxpayer-friendly, respectful of residents, innovative and environmentally responsible.” (Click here to sign the petition.) 

For more information about the proposal, see the CRD’s webpage and the PLDCA’s  concerns about it.

p. 93: “Appropriate zoning for the landfill and other annexed lands was adopted by Council in 2005 following Capital Regional District Board approval of amendments to the Solid Waste Management Plan to address buffering for the Hartland site, a public review process for amendments to the SWMP, and dispute mechanisms for the site.”
