Public Notice – September 9, 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public Information Centre 1 Details:
Date:<\/strong> Tuesday, September 29, 2026,
Time<\/strong>: 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Location:<\/strong> Council Chambers, Township of Russell
717 Notre-Dame St, Embrun, ON K0A 1W1
The Corporation of the Township of Russell (Township), in
coordination with The Nation Municipality (The Nation), has initiated a
Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) study for a new
Consolidated Mechanical Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) to
service the communities of Embrun, Russell, and Limoges.
A Public Information Centre (PIC) is being held to introduce the project,
preliminary results of activities completed to date and to solicit public
and stakeholders\u2019 feedback on the information presented. The PIC will
follow a drop-in format. Project team representatives will be available
to answer questions and discuss next steps.
The Process<\/strong>
The Class EA study is being carried out in accordance with the
requirements of a Schedule \u2018C\u2019 project of the Municipal Class
Environmental Assessment document (last amended in February
2024), which is approved under the Ontario Environmental
Assessment Act. The study will identify and evaluate the location and
alternative design concepts for the new Consolidated WWTP. The
WWTP location and preferred treatment design concepts will be
selected to minimize technical, socio-cultural, natural environmental
and economic impacts.
Public Consultation<\/strong>
Public consultation is an integral component of the Class EA process,
and we value your input during the planning process. Two (2) PICs will
be held in association with the Class EA study. Notices for the PICs
will be published in local newspapers, on the Township\u2019s website
(www.russell.ca<\/a>), on The Nation\u2019s website (www.nationmun.ca<\/a>), on the
Township\u2019s social media and distributed to all individuals and agencies
who express an interest in this project.
If you wish to be placed on the Project Contact List to receive notices
and information or to provide comments at any time during the
process, you can do so by contacting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
