Stanhope Peninsula Potable Water Committee
September 8, 2022 Update On August 23, 2022 a public meeting was held at the Community of North Shore Community Centre at which residents were briefed on the preliminary findings and recommendations contained in the draft final report on the Stanhope Peninsula Potable Water situation as prepared by CBCL, the consultant. Subsequent to the CBCL presentation members of the public were invited to ask questions and make statements regarding the information provided. In addition to the CBCL representatives, officials from the PEI Department of Environment, Energy and Climate Action were available to answer questions and provide clarifications, as requested. The public meeting provided residents with an opportunity to express views and request that certain aspects be further considered and/or detailed. Residents are advised that they may continue to comment on the draft report findings by contacting the CAO directly. The Committee met on September 7, 2022 to discuss the Draft Report and the issues raised during the public meeting. All views, opinions and information are now being considered and will be addressed by the Committee and the Consultant. The report will be adjusted, accordingly. The Final Study Report will be issued soon. After review by the Committee and Council, it will be posted on the Community website and available to all residents for their consideration and further comment. Later this fall the Final Report will be tabled at Council to determine future directions and actions to be taken.
