The Lively-Walden Wastewater System Upgrade project in Greater Sudbury, Ontario aims to address capacity challenges and improve service levels for wastewater infrastructure. This capital project involves detailed design and construction of upgrades to the Anderson List Station, Jacob Street Lift Station, and the linear collection system downstream of the Lively Wastewater Treatment Plant. Additionally, it includes Phase 1 upgrades to the Walden Wastewater Treatment Plant and the decommissioning of the Lively Wastewater Treatment Plant. The upgrades will increase the wastewater treatment capacity to accommodate growth within the Lively-Walden community to 2051 and the Atikameksheng Anishnawbek First Nation to 2062. The project will enhance environmental protection, reduce inflow and infiltration, and improve infrastructure reliability. The outcome will be a robust wastewater system supporting long-term growth, environmental sustainability, and compliance with provincial policies.
