Utilities Kingston has initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) to evaluate options for the management (i.e. collection, conveyance, and treatment) of sewage from the 32-home Cana community. The location of the existing plant is shown in the figure below. The study is being conducted according to the Municipal Class EA process, and is currently considered a Schedule C undertaking. The treatment capacity of the plant is not being increased as part of this project

The EA has been implemented to address the infrastructure in the Cana community, since the existing facility and collection system are aging and in need of repair. The existing sewage collection system has been in operation for approximately 50 years and preliminary investigations have revealed that improvements are required. The Cana WWTP was commissioned in 1973 and has not been substantially improved since that time. Given that effluent quality requirements have become increasingly stringent and that the existing plant is in need of repair, this Class EA will seek to provide recommendations for what form improvements to the system should take
