The Municipality of the County of Victoria is pleased to announce that the Nova Scotia Department of Environment and Climate Change has granted formal approval for the Ingonish Wastewater Treatment System serving South Ingonish Harbour.

On November 18, 2025, provincial officials confirmed the project met regulatory requirements, allowing Phase 1 construction to move ahead.

This approval marks a major milestone for the project that aims to modernize wastewater services, protect the local environment and support community growth.

With this approval in place, construction on the first phase can officially begin.

Earlier this month, the Municipality shared a project update noting that components of the collection system and modular treatment plant had begun arriving on-site, with crews preparing for installation.

The Municipality will continue to provide regular updates as work progresses.
