Annual Wastewater Report Shows Harbour Clean-Up To Be Primary Focus

The construction of 3 lift stations and several improvements to existing facilities the highlight of the 2010 Wastewater report from Saint John Water.

Three lift stations were built last year: one in Monte Cristo Park and two along Red Head Road.

Graham Huddleston with Saint John Water says wastewater treatment in Saint John poses some unique challenges --  a high number of pumping stations and treatment facilities are needed to carry wastewater through the many hills in the city.

Additional highlights include upgrades to existing facilities and the additional certification of several employees.
