Poplar River First Nation’s wastewater lagoon had exceeded its treatment capacity, creating compliance challenges and limiting future growth. The community needed an upgrade that could deliver long‑term reliability within a constrained site. The project added new primary and secondary cells, converted the existing primary cell to expand secondary treatment, and installed all required interconnecting piping.
Opaskwayak Cree Nation (OCN) retained JRCC to provide the engineering services for a new aerated lagoon to replace the existing sewage treatment plant. The existing OCN sewage treatment plant did not meet discharge requirements, despite multiple upgrades and process modifications, and, according to the operator, has never functioned properly. The wastewater treatment project consisted of
Mishkeegogamang First Nation is serviced by two water treatment plants – the Ten Houses WTP and the New Osnaburgh WTP. The New Osnaburgh WTP was a membrane system that provided sufficient water treatment, but was experiencing equipment performance issues. The community required additional reservoir storage capacity. JRCC prepared a Water Treatment Feasibility Study to review
JRCC was retained to provide engineering services for the NCN water treatment plant upgrade. The community’s water and wastewater system was operating at capacity and future planned developments would be a further stress on the system. There were also concerns with water quality and the potential for contamination of the water source from the existing
JRCC was retained by the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation (NCN) to conduct a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of the NCN Reserve lands, consisting of 25,000 ha over 18 separate land parcels. The Phase I ESA was completed in 2017 and included a records review, site visits to several reserve parcels, interviews with First Nation personnel
JRCC provided design, tender and construction supervision services for a new clay-lined waste disposal ground cell and leachate pond at the Class I Regional Integrated Waste Disposal Facility in the RM of Minto-Odanah. Additional works included access road construction, ditch construction, leachate collection piping and seeding. Construction of this cell was completed in 2020. JRCC
JRCC was retained by MWSB to provide engineering services for the water distribution system and the sewage collection system renewal works in the Town of Snow Lake. Services included design and tender administration, resident and non-resident, and warranty services. Renewal works were conducted over two years. The project involved the replacement of 1,682 m of
The main access road, Blue Mountain Drive, to Naotkamegwanning First Nation, Northwest Angle #33 First Nation, and Animakee Wa Zhing #37, which comprises Main drive and Northwest Angle Road, required significate rehabilitation to provide a safe and reliable transportation route to the three communities. The roadway had a surface treated pavement with a pavement condition
Gillam’s roads, drainage, water, and sewer infrastructure was aging and required upgrading to support the anticipated population increases and associated need for housing and commercial services. The project included the engineering assessment, design, and construction of road and drainage renewals, which were completed over seven years. This included approximately 20 km of roads and land
Fisher River Cree Nation was in need of a road upgrade to the existing community road situated west of PR 224, known as West Road. Upgrade works were completed on both sides of the West Road bridge that crosses the Fisher River. The 2.6 km stretch of West Road was re-graded; geotextile and granular material
