On behalf of the Municipality of Boissevain-Morton, Stantec Consulting Ltd. has filed an Environment Act proposal for construction and operation of an aerated wastewater treatment lagoon with post lagoon nitrification. The construction site is located at SE 11-04-20 W, in the Municipality of Boissevain-Morton, approximately 5 km north of Boissevain, adjacent to an existing waste disposal ground.

Incoming wastewater would be conveyed to the new lagoon via a new lift station and forcemain. Effluent would be discharged into Cherry Creek via an effluent lift station and return forcemain.
