Unique Wastewater Treatment System Solves Manufactured Home Community Problem

By 2001 the community was heading into bankruptcy, when the Ministry of the Environment ordered the North Grenville municipality to assume control of the community and attempt to repair the sewage system.

While the residents feared for several years they would have to leave their homes, a solution was finally reached Aug. 24, 2015 with the installation of Clearford Water Systems Inc.’s mini-sewage treatment plant, an innovative, first-of-its-kind in Canada design for communal water systems.

In 2008 North Grenville was ordered to empty the sewage holding tanks at Fetherston or else the residents would be forced to leave. Maurice Dumoulin, president of the Fethertston Mobile Home Park Association, persisted in trying to find a solution to the problem and was finally rewarded with the successful installation of a treatment plant that actually has room for another 90 residences in the community, and is designed to last 100 years.

The $1 million treatment plant will be paid for over a 30-year period by the association imposing a monthly fee on each of the manufactured homes. MHProNews understands its system might have numerous application possibilities in communities across the U. S.

Kevin Loiselle, president and CEO of Clearford Water Systems said his engineers worked on the project for a year, resulting in a system for more efficient communal wastewater treatment systems across the country. He added his company has finalized plans to install a similar system in a small tribal village in India. ##
