Groundwater Supply System Improvements to Mitigate Impacts of Extreme Weather Events
EF 2024-25 · 2024-10-09
Résumé
The project proposes to upgrade the water supply, treatment and storage of drinking water in the northern York Region. Water to these communities is sourced from a lake-based supply, which is at risk of failure due to extreme storm events and extreme heat events. The project will mitigate the risk through diversification of water sources, in this case with investment in a resilient and sustainable groundwater supply system consisting of 11 wellfield sites and 23 wells (i.e., multiple wells are located at each wellfield site). The groundwater wells included in this project are located within the 4 communities they serve. This project would begin construction in 2023 and end in 2028.

Description
The project proposes to upgrade the water supply, treatment and storage of drinking water in the northern York Region.

Description (French)
Le projet vise à mettre à niveau du réseau d’approvisionnement en eau potable et des systèmes connexes de traitement et de stockage de l’eau dans le nord de la région de York. Dans ces collectivités, l’eau provient d’un approvisionnement lacustre, qui risque de devenir inadéquat en raison d’événements de tempêtes et de chaleurs extrêmes. Le projet atténuera le risque en diversifiant les sources d’approvisionnement, dans ce cas-ci, en investissant dans un système approvisionnement en eau souterraine qui sera constitué de 11 emplacements de puits et de 23 puits (c.-à-d. que plusieurs puits seront situés à chaque emplacement). Les puits d’eau souterraine prévus dans le cadre du projet se trouveront dans les quatre collectivités qu’elles desserviront. La construction commencerait en 2023 et se terminerait en 2028.
