1. We need an extension to do the proper studies.
Odour was not one of the criteria that was considered
Comments from Kerrie Shinn
"this
current Phase 2 input is the most crucial for controlling sizing of local
options, placement of trunk sewers and pumping stations that will direct flows
to specific destinations or not."For

I would appreciate it if you emailed your comments to me and I would be very pleased to forward all comments to the Regional Staff My email is elgar@sympatico.ca and the individual at the Region of Halton who is responsible for receiving comments not later than Feb 7th is David Ohashi and his email address is ohashid@region.halton.on.ca
It is interesting to note that the criteria used for the
comparative sewage servicing alternatives did not even have odour listed
as one of the criteria.
Information taken from Halton Master Plan Table ES-2
Operations
Potential Impacts
Socio-economic/community/cultural -Impacts to adjacent
residents(noise, dust, aesthetics) during
operation of facilities
-Impacts to adjacent community and recreation features (noise,
traffic, aesthetics) due to operation of facilities
Take time to look at the two visual impacts below and you be the judge of whether odours should have been considered as a criteria

Sewage Treatment Plant meeting Information Jan 29 2003
Currently the plant processes 21,498 cubic metres of sewage on a daily basis. Within the next 20years the plant is scheduled to process 166,ooo cubic metres of sewage daily. In actual fact this represents a 672% increase in sewage processing.
Critical meeting related to the growth of the sewage treatment plant at 2195 North Service Road just west of Third Line
The Mid-Halton Plant is in Glen Abbey and it is slated to process all of the
sewage for all future development of North Oakville, Milton
and the Halton Hills 401 Corridor
Based on the feedback from residents, I feel that very few people realize
that the Mid Halton Sewage Treatment Plant is actually in Ward 4. This
plant will grow by approximately 400%. Is this the best decision for our
residential community?
Please attend to voice your view before it is to late.
