North End Sewage Treatment Upgrades
$2.34 billion
THE SCOPE of work for the first capital project includes the design and construction of a new
headworks facility that will include a raw sewage pump station, a micro-tunnel extension of existing
interceptor sewers, a grit removal system, a main control room, fine screens and compactors, and a
plant emergency generator facility. This project is currently in construction. The second capital project
includes the design and construction of a new biosolids facility that will address end-of-life equipment
and regulatory requirements regarding the recovery of nutrients and maximizing biosolids reuse. It will
add new facilities to treat the sludge from the City’s three sewage treatment plants and replace end-oflife equipment. This project is currently in the procurement phase. The third capital project includes the
design and construction of the nutrient removal facilities which will remove nitrogen and phosphorus
from the wastewater. This project is currently in the planning stage. •

Northwest Langley Wastewater Treatment Plant
$2.3 billion
THE NORTHWEST Langley Wastewater Treatment Plant, which currently serves 30,000 people, is being
expanded to serve more than 280,000 people, including residences and businesses in the Township of
Langley, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, and North Surrey. The plant expansion is one of several projects
taking place to improve the sustainability and resilience of wastewater treatment in the region. To divert
the flows to the Northwest Langley Wastewater Treatment Plant, a new pump station is being built north
of the Fraser River in Maple Ridge. Two new sewer pipes are being constructed under the Fraser River
to connect the pump station in Maple Ridge to the upgraded treatment plant in Langley. A new storage
tank, located with the pump station, will temporarily store wastewater to significantly reduce overflows
during storms. • Conceptual rendering of the Northwest Langley Wastewater Treatment Plant
