The City of Winnipeg says new biosolids facilities will be built at the North End Wastewater Treatment Plant (NEWPCC). Thursday, the City awarded an $815.48 million contract to Red River Biosolids Partners to build the site, with construction expected to begin over the next few weeks. “The Biosolids Facilities receive sludge from Winnipeg’s three wastewater treatment plants, where it is treated and turned into reusable biosolids,” said the City of Winnipeg in a statement.
“The upgrades will replace aging infrastructure, increase capacity to support Winnipeg’s growth, and help meet the requirements of the City of Winnipeg’s Environment Act Licence and the Water Protection Act.” The facilities are expected to begin treating biosolids in October 2030.
