This report is prepared on an annual basis to meet the requirements of the Government of Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) amended Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) #6927-9QDM2P for the design and operation of the Atlantic Avenue WPCP. [...] INFLUENT PUMP STATION Wastewater from the serviced area in Thunder Bay enters the WPCP at the Influent Pump Station (IPS) where five pumps are available to deliver the wastewater to the preliminary treatment process. [...] The filters are aerated to satisfy the requirements of the micro-organism population and to maintain biological activity and growth. [...] The cogeneration system converts the biogas to electricity and captures the heat generated from the engine. [...] This was due to the limited nitrifying capacity in the secondary treatment process during and after the wet weather events where the WPCP was operating above the rated capacity.
