Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Study Master Plan Update for Russell Township Water and Wastewater Systems
The Corporation of the Township of Russell (Township) is initiating a Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA)
study to update its 2016 Water and Wastewater Master Plan.
The 2016 Master Plan outlined a 20-year strategy for water and wastewater infrastructure upgrades based on growth forecasted at the time. Since the completion of the 2016 Master Plan, the pace of development within the Township’s urban areas has exceeded what was previously projected. In addition, the proposed Official Plan Amendment expands the urban boundaries of the Township. These new areas will require water and wastewater servicing. This Master Plan study will identify new infrastructure or improvements to existing infrastructure to accommodate future development over a 20-year planning period.
