Parkhill Meats Limited - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)

This proposal is for a new Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage) to establish a stormwater management works facility serving an existing meat processing plant, in support of a proposed expansion development of a site located at 3900 Elginfield Road, on the north side of Elginfield Road, east of McLean Road and west of Cassidy Road, in North Middlesex/Parkhill, Ontario.

The sewage works design include the supply and installation of a new stormwater management facility (dry pond) for water quantity and quantity control, which will discharge from the site to the Jansen-McLean Drain, within the Mud Creek/Lake Huron Watershed.

The proposal further includes the supply and installation of a wash water/non‐agricultural source materials tank. The proposed meat packing/processing facility expansion involves a complete washdown of the processing area and the washdown wastewater (by pressure washing) will be sent to the 367,000 litres wash water/non‐agricultural source holding tank located on the north side of the facility through floor drains that are located throughout the processing facility.

The wastewater will first flow through an oil/grease separator tank after which it will flow into the wastewater tank. The wastewater will be then pumped into a tanker truck which will transport the wastewater to an approved site for processing.
