Town of Delisle Breaks Ground on Lift Station Replacement Project

O

n March 1st at 10:30 a.m. the Town of Delisle welcomed residents, businesses, service agencies, Town employees, Federal and Provincial Government representatives, and the media to a groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the new Sewage Lift Station #2. The new Sewage Lift Station will replace the existing Sewage Lift Station #2 which originally existed only as a manhole structure after being constructed in 1967. In 1982, the existing building and dry pump well were added providing pumping capacity for the pumps and force main of 8 L/S and 16.4 L/S respectively. With future planned residential development coupled with the age of the existing infrastructure, the existing components were determined undersized to handle future demands and a replacement was required. Replacement of Sewage Lift Station #2 and accompanying force main along with decommission of the existing aging infrastructure is anticipated to cost approximately $3,266,910.00.

In November of 2022, the Town of Delisle applied for a contribution through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) which is a bilateral agreement signed by the Governments of Canada and Saskatchewan in 2018 for Saskatchewan infrastructure projects. In December of 2023, Delisle received conditional approval of the contribution awarding $1,985,996 towards total eligible expenditures for the project. AECOM was contracted to complete engineering and design services for the new lift station and will be overseeing the project until completion. Town of Delisle Mayor Deb Winder recognized the contribution of both the Federal and Provincial governments through the ICIP program as well as previous Councils in their forethought and planning which ultimately brought this project to fruition. Mayor Winder recognized the significant contribution the new lift station will bring to the community commenting, “This lift station will be instrumental for Delisle’s future and will support the continued growth of our community for years to come”. “Investing in infrastructure means supporting Saskatchewan’s growth and ensuring communities are built to last,” said the Honourable Terry Duguid, Minister for PrairiesCan. “This project will make sure Delisle residents have reliable services that safeguard the environment and support the town’s future.” “The Government of Saskatchewan is excited to join the Town of Delisle to celebrate the launch of this important project,” Minister of Advanced Education Ken Cheveldayoff said on behalf of Government Relations Minister Eric Schmalz. “Infrastructure projects like this help Saskatchewan communities to meet the demands of growth while remaining affordable, safe places to live, work and raise a family.”
