Public Notice
Regional Municipality of Peel
West Brampton Reservoir, Pumping Station
and Transmission Main
Class Environmental Assessment
Notice of Completion
The Region of Peel, through their consultants,
Earth Tech Canada, has completed the West Brampton Reservoir
and Pumping Station and Transmission Main Class Environmental
Assessment (Class EA) study. The study identifies the
preferred location for the future West Brampton reservoir/pumping
station site and transmission main alignment which will
connect into the existing Meadowvale North Reservoir
(see map). The Region's Water and Wastewater Servicing
Master Plan, May 1999 (including 2002 Addendum), has
identified the need to construct these water facilities
in the Cities of Mississauga and Brampton to meet the
demands of future development in West Peel. Construction
of the project is expected to commence in late 2004
and be completed by the end of 2006.
 The
Process
The study has been conducted in accordance with the
approved requirements of a Schedule "C" project
as defined in the June 2000 Municipal Class EA document.
The Class EA planning process for this project includes
public and review agency consultation, an evaluation
of alternatives, an assessment of the impacts of the
proposed projects, and identification of measures to
mitigate any adverse impacts.
Public Information Centre No. 1
A Public Information Centre (PIC) for this project was
held on February 6, 2003 for this project to present
the preliminary results to date, including the need
and justification, recommended solution, and the alternative
sites and alignments under consideration for public
comment.
Public Information Centre No. 2
A second PIC was held October 30, 2003 to present the
results of the evaluation process including the preliminary
recommended transmission main route, which is based
on following Heritage Road and extending from the existing
Meadowvale North Reservoir. Alternative reservoir/pumping
station sites were also presented for review and comment.
Public Information Centre No. 3
PIC No. 3 was held on February 5, 2004 to confirm the
recommended transmission main alignment (Route B: Heritage
Road) and recommended reservoir/pumping station site
(Site 2A), which is situated on the west side of Mississauga
Road between Highway 7 and Embleton Road (see map).
Input received was considered and included in the final
evaluation of transmission main alignments and reservoir/pumping
station sites.
Environmental Study Report
The Environmental Study Report (ESR) has been prepared
to document the planning and decision making processes
followed. By this notice, the ESR is being placed on
the public record for a 30-day calendar review period
in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal
Class EA. Subject to comments received as a result of
this Notice and the necessary approvals, the Region
of Peel intends to proceed with the detailed design
and construction as documented in the ESR.
The Environmental Study Report will be available starting
on Wednesday, March 24, 2004 for public review for 30

Please provide written comments to Binu
Korah at the Region of Peel within the 30 calendar day
review period which will start on March 24, 2004 and
end on April 22, 2004.
If concerns arise during the prescribed
review period that cannot be resolved through discussion
with the Regional Municipality of Peel, a person or
party may request that the Minister of the Environment
make an order for the project to comply with Part II
of the Environmental Assessment Act. This would then
subject the project to an individual environmental assessment.
This request (commonly referred to as a Part II Order
or "bump up" request) must be received within
the above prescribed 30 calendar day review period by
the Minister, at the address listed below. If no request
is received by April 22, 2004, the Region may proceed
with design and construction of the project as presented
in the planning documentation.
The Honourable Leona Dombrowsky
Minister of the Environment
