The Township of Ramara owns two wastewater treatment facilities. These facilities serve the communities of Brechin, Lagoon City and Bayshore Village.

If your home is not connected to a municipal sanitary sewer system, then you have a private sewage treatment system.

Annual Performance Reports

Ministry of Environment inspection reports

Wastewater treatment and collection systems are subject to the legislative requirements of the Ontario Water Resources Act and the Environmental Protection Act and regulations made therein.

The Ministry of Environment makes every effort to inspect the wastewater treatment facilities every 3 years.

Sewer Use Bylaw

The Sewer Use Bylaw controls discharges to Ramara's sanitary sewers. The bylaw protects the environment and the operation of our wastewater treatment facilities. 

New Connections

If municipal sanitary sewers are available in your area, you can contact the Infrastructure Department to discuss the possibility to connect.

The property owner is responsible for the maintenance of the sanitary sewer lateral.
