Arva Pumping Station to Huron Street Transmission Main
Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Master Plan
The City of London (City) has completed a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) master plan study, following Master Plan Approach #2 which fulfills Schedule B requirements and completes Phases 1 and 2 of the MCEA process, to develop short and long-term maintenance and improvement/expansion plans for the Arva Huron Water Transmission Main between the Arva Pumping Station and Huron Street. This study included an assessment of the need to maintain and/or potentially widen the existing transmission main easement to continue ongoing monitoring of the condition of the watermain and/or for potential maintenance, repair or replacement of the existing watermain.
The study determined that the short-term maintenance alternative is to maintain the easement as is (15m or 50’) and only expand where opportunities may arise through land use changes. This ensures access to the existing transmission main for ongoing monitoring, maintenance and/or repair purposes without requiring the purchase of additional easement or property.
The study also determined that the preferred long-term expansion alternative is to twin the transmission main along Adelaide Street to add system capacity and redundancy with a connection to the existing transmission mains at Fanshawe Park Road and on Regent Street. This will also provide the opportunity for eventual decommissioning of the existing water transmission main between Fanshawe Park Road and Huron Street in the future.
A Master Plan Project File has been prepared and a copy will be placed on public record on July 12th, 2021 for forty five (45) calendar days to be reviewed by members of the public and/or any other interested party at the following locations: The City of London – 300 Dufferin Avenue - City Clerk, 3rd floor, The London Public Library Central Branch 251 Dundas Street and on the City’s website at: https://london.ca/projects/arva-pumping-station-huron-street-water-transmission-main-master-plan
Interested persons are encouraged to review the document and provide comments to the City of London by August 27, 2021. If concerns regarding this project cannot be resolved in discussion with the City of London, the Ministry of Environment Conservation and Parks will have an additional 30-day window to review the study and decide what action to take.
If there are outstanding concerns following discussions with the City regarding potential adverse impacts to constitutionally protected Aboriginal and treaty rights, Part II Order requests on those matters should be addressed in writing to Minister Jeff Yurek, Ministry of the Environment Conservation and Park, 777 Bay Street, 5th Floor Toronto ON M7A 2J3 (minister.mecp@ontario.ca) and the Director, Environmental Assessment Branch, Ministry of Environment Conservation and Parks, 135 St. Clair Ave. W, 1st Floor, Toronto ON M4V 1P5 (EABdirector@ontario.ca)
