The Pembroke Water Purification Plant (WPP) is located on the shores of the Ottawa River located in the City of Pembroke. The plant was built in 1984 with an approved capacity of 32,368 m3/day and maintains a water distribution system encompassing 55 miles of watermains. The plant is capable of purifying 8.0 MIGD of raw water which is readily obtained from the Ottawa River. The Pembroke plant and distribution system serves approximately 4800 residential units in the City of Pembroke and 150 units in Laurentian Valley Township, as well as industrial and commercial developments in both municipalities.
Pressure within the system ranges from 95psi at the plant to 35psi in the vicinity of the elevated storage tank located in the southeast section of the City. Additional water supply is available by means of the Quarry Road reservoir located near TransCan Corporate Park. At present, the plant produces 17,624 cubic metres per day uncommitted or 48% available, producing water of the highest quality which meets all of Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment guidelines for drinking water supplies for a Class III plant.

The Pollution Control Centre has the capacity to allow a flow of 22,700 cubic metres per day. This would enable the City to serve a population of 21,000 plus related industries. At present, our uncommitted hydraulic reserve capacity is 7,940 cubic metres per day or 35% available. Sewage flow consists of approximately 70% domestic, 20% commercial and 10% industrial. The plant operation criteria meets the guidelines set by the Ontario Ministry of Environment for a Class III Certification. Digested sludge is dewatered by a belt filter press; the filtered cake is then utilized as fertilizer on suitable area farms. The by-product of such digester operation is methane gas which is used to heat the digester to 95° F and heat the buildings. All laboratory analysis is performed by professionally trained and certified staff. Pembroke Waste Water Treatment Plant
