Wastewater Treatment

Wastewater Treatment

Safe and effective wastewater treatment is vital to the continued health and well-being of RDN residents and the environment. The wastewater treatment processes at each of the RDN's four facilities operate under strict regulations and meet or exceed standards set by provincial and federal government.

Periodically, the RDN offers tours of the Greater Nanaimo Pollution Control Centre and French Creek Pollution Control Centre. To request a tour, review the Tour Request Package and complete the request form and waiver.

Property owners not connected to sewer can learn more about septic systems on the SepticSmart page.
