Ground Breaks on Spallumcheen Wastewater Recovery Facility
Ground has broken on a $33.1 million sewer system that’s set to be a boon for the agricultural sector and residents in Spallumcheen.
The North Okanagan Wastewater Recovery project is funded by local, provincial and federal levels of government and will feature a new water treatment facility, sludge treatment system and about 12 kilometres of main pump stations. The project will run along the Swan Lake corridor north of Vernon.
The project will provide sewer service to residents and businesses in portions of the Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) Electoral Areas B and C and the Township of Spallumcheen’s southeast industrial area, while also having the ability to service parts of the Okanagan Indian Band (OKIB). In doing so, it will provide service to one of the last developed areas in the Okanagan without a community sewer system.
