Voice YOUR opinion on the Ottawa River Action Plan

from the Office of Christine Leadman:

Four public meetings beginning this week will help the City of Ottawa determine which course of action it should take to protect the long-term health of the Ottawa River.

The Ottawa River Action Plan includes 16 projects, one of which specifically addresses the problem of Combined Sewer Overflows. The City will outline three potential solutions it is considering to reduce the overflows, ranging in cost from $40 million to $2.2 billion. Feedback on which option residents find the most sustainable — economically, environmentally and socially — will be gathered at the meetings and through an online survey.
