The objective of the Master Plan is to review the capacity of the Township’s water and wastewater systems, to determine infrastructure needs, and to establish a strategy to provide water and wastewater services to accommodate growth during the 2023 to 2046 planning horizon. The Master Plan builds upon the findings of the Township’s 2016 Master Plan (WSP, 2016) and other studies that have been completed since.

The Master Plan study area includes the geographical boundaries of the Township, corresponding to an area of approximately 200 square kilometres with four urban communities: Embrun, Russell, Marionville and Limoges. The Master Plan focuses on water servicing for the communities of Embrun, Russell, and Marionville, and wastewater servicing for the communities of Embrun and Russell.

The scope of the Master Plan also evaluated if the current water supply feedermain had capacity should the 417.4 acres (approximately 170 ha) of future serviced lands identified for the Highway 417 Industrial Park receive water servicing. Wastewater servicing of the Highway 417 Industrial Park was not evaluated as part of this Master Plan.
