Liquid Waste Management Plan Amendment

The Liquid Waste Management Plan (LWMP) is the Regional District of Nanaimo's (RDN's) long-range plan to manage wastewater. The LMWP gives the RDN authority to determine community-driven solutions to wastewater management goals. The RDN Board endorsed the 2023 Liquid Waste Management Plan Amendment at the November 28, 2023 Regular Board Meeting.

The plan has been sent to the Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy to request approval. Thank you to everyone who participated in this process.

The RDN LWMP Amendment will:

Capture progress towards goals in the 2014 LWMP.
Update action items in the LWMP to meet the needs and values of our communities.
Update the timeline to provide secondary treatment at Nanoose Bay Pollution Control Centre by 2040.
Update the list of wastewater infrastructure projects and their cost estimates
