Scoudouc sewer project begins
SCOUDOUC, N.B.
Construction has begun on an extended sanitary sewer line and expanded lagoon for Scoudouc residents.
The sewage plant improvements are possible thanks to $3.5 million in federal funding under the Canada-New Brunswick Agreement concerning federal gas tax revenue transfers to the province. The Greater Shediac Sewerage Commission is contributing $832,095 to the project, for a total project of $4,379,445.
The new system includes the extension of the sanitary sewer line along Route 132, to the subdivision near Highway 15, including Harbour View, Crustation and Seeview Streets.
This extension will allow the connection of approximately 80 households that are currently on private septic treatment systems. The upgrade will also require adding capacity to the existing treatment lagoon system with an additional aerated lagoon cell.
