The community of Arthur is a growing urban community located within the Township of Wellington North (Township) that is serviced by municipal water, sanitary and stormwater systems. A Technical Study of the existing conditions of Arthur’s water and sanitary systems was completed in November 2020 to review the adequacy of these systems to meet the needs of the existing community and to service future development. As a result of the Technical Study and subsequent updates, it has been determined that the existing Arthur water system requires water supply redundancy and additional water storage to support expected population growth and has therefore initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) for the Arthur Water System. The existing water supply wells and towers in Arthur’s water system are shown on the map below.
The project is being planned following the Schedule B process in the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Municipal Engineers Association, March 2023) to identify and evaluate alternatives to address the water supply and storage requirements and select a preferred alternative. Consultation with affected or interested stakeholders and Indigenous Communities is a key element in the planning process.
For further information on the project, or on the planning process being followed, to be added to the study mailing list or to share information for consideration and influence in the decision-making process, please contact one of the Project Team members listed below. Initial comments are welcomed and will be received until September 14, 2023.
