Important Lunenburg Wastewater Treatment Plant Update
- Details
- Published: Wednesday, 06 May 2026 14:06
The Town of Lunenburg is planning to perform equipment replacement at the Lunenburg Wastewater Treatment Plant that shall create periods of disruption to the Town’s wastewater treatment process. This period of disruption is tentatively scheduled for a 12-hour period during the week of June 2.
This time could change depending on weather or other factors. It is estimated that during this scheduled period of disruption for the equipment replacement work, approximately 1,000 m3 of partially treated wastewater will be released into Lunenburg Front Harbour from a single relief point located near 34 Bluenose Dr. (-64.31390138, 44.37614024), Lunenburg. This location is the regular release point for effluent from the Wastewater Treatment Plant into Lunenburg’s Front Harbour.
This equipment replacement work at the Lunenburg Wastewater Treatment Plant is integral to the system’s operation and must be completed by altering the regular wastewater treatment process. As a result, the Town of Lunenburg will schedule the period of disruption to take place during expected times of no/low precipitation to reduce flows within the wastewater collection system. This will help to minimize the impact on customers and the environment while ensuring customers continue to have wastewater service during this period.
To reduce pressure on the wastewater system and minimize environmental impact during these periods of disruption, we are asking Town of Lunenburg utility customers to reduce wastewater flows. Please minimize use of running water, flushing toilets or doing laundry during these times.
Further details shall be provided by the Town in due course to confirm the date and time for the commencement of the period of disruption to the wastewater treatment process.
