Stantec to Design South Niagara Wastewater Infrastructure

The Regional Municipality of Niagara, Ontario, has awarded Stantec two projects within the South Niagara Wastewater Treatment Solutions (SNWWTS) program. Stantec will provide detailed design and provisional construction management services for the new South Niagara Wastewater Treatment Plant and outfall, as well as the South Niagara Trunk Sewer. These projects are intended to support population and employment growth in Niagara Falls and surrounding municipalities while managing increased wastewater flows.

The SNWWTS program, with an estimated capital cost of C$400 million, aims to enhance wastewater capacity and reduce the risk of basement flooding and system overflows. The new wastewater treatment plant is expected to have a rated capacity of 30 million litres per day, with construction anticipated to be completed by 2029. In addition, Stantec’s project team will explore the potential for Envision verification, a certification for sustainable infrastructure projects.

“This is an important and transformative effort that will develop the infrastructure for the Niagara region to grow. Our local multidiscipline staff, along with our team of international experts, are excited to work alongside Niagara Region to deliver this project that will help provide sustainable and reliable service for the area.” said Mike Kocher, Stantec’s design manager for the new wastewater treatment plant.
