PROJECT Q & A
WILL THIS PROJECT CREATE JOBS AND WHERE CAN I FIND MORE INFORMATION? There will be a need for increased capacity/workers and equipment for the new subdivision in the Housing Department and Operations & Maintenance Department. Employee opportunities will be posted when we are closer to completion. To learn about possible opportunities, please reach out Leonora Thomas by email: Leonora.thomas@lfn.band WHAT KIND OF RESERVOIR AND PUMP SYSTEM WILL BE INSTALLED? The new reservoir and pump system will increase the capacity of the water system to support the new subdivision. The reservoir will be buried underground to provide natural protection from fires. The pump system will be housed in a concrete pump station similar to the rest of the existing system.
WHAT IS THE CURRENT USAGE AND CAPACITY OF THE STEIN WATER SYSTEM? Based on a 2023 Water Improvement Feasibility Study, and 2024 flow monitoring results, it was confirmed that while the Stein Water System can handle regular daily demands, its capacity is limited in meeting demand during peak or busy hours. This means the water system may struggle to cope with sudden high demands that may be associated with emergencies such as fire suppression. This project will increase the capacity of water available to the community by implementing a new water intake and reservoir. The water system upgrades are designed to accommodate 20-year forecasted on-reserve population; the upgrades are planned to provide capacity for the next 20 years at a minimum, based on the current rate of on-reserve population growth. Alkali Road will be upgraded and designated as the primary access route for the Nuuautin 2B Subdivision and other homes on Alkali Road. Green Meadows Road will be designated as an Emergency Egress route upon completion of the subdivision. During construction, Green Meadows Road will be utilized temporarily as the primary access route. WHAT WILL BE THE EMERGENCY ROUTE FOR THE NEW SUBDIVISION?
PLEASE ASK US ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
