The water treatment plant went online delivering
water to the people of Port Carling October 3rd 2002.
The treatment process for this facility consists of
chemically assisted coagulation-flocculation,
sedimentation and filtration using multi-media filters
with a combination of gravel, sand and anthracite coal.
Disinfection in a post-treatment chlorine contact chamber
is followed by final pH adjustment before the treated water
is pumped to customers. The waterworks currently serves
a population of approximately 800 persons. The plant is
rated at 1590 cubic meters per day at the stage 1 design,
and 2923 cubic meters per day at stage 2. The raw water
source is Lake Rosseau and our intake is located 1.8 meters
above the lakebed at a depth of 24.3 meters and about 800
meters from shore.
