Port Browning Marina Resort

Port Browning Marina Resort

The Port Browning Marina Resort is located on North Pender Island in British Columbia. It includes a restaurant, marina, and campground. The water source for the facility is a small, upland pond about 1 km uphill. The water in the pond contains moderate levels of iron, manganese and tannins. All of these present an aesthetic challenge.

MSR Solutions used a series of media filters, tannin filtration and greensand. Treatment consisted of a series of media filters, oxidation of the metals with permanganate, ultraviolet disinfection, and chlorination. We achieved high water clarity prior to disinfection using UV light.

The water treatment process at Port Browning Marina Resort operates  day and night to supply an appropriately sized reservoir. This reservoir is maintained at a minimal chlorine residual. This ensures clear, clean water throughout the resort.

MSR Solutions facilitated system upgrades, and continues to work with the resort to provide ongoing operational support.

 

 

 

 

Cottages on Osoyoos Lake, Oliver, BC

Cottages on Osoyoos Lake, Oliver, BC

Cottages on Osoyoos Lake is a 300-home residential development on Osoyoos Lake.

We were retained to design a water treatment plant and wastewater treatment plant co-housed in a single treatment building and obtained approval from Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC). Wastewater works include screening, equalization, chemical nutrient removal and flat plate membranes from WesTech Engineering. Discharge is to rapid infiltration basins and subsurface drip irrigation. We provided construction oversight and commissioning support.

We continue to provide ongoing operation support.

Port Renfrew CRD – Water System Upgrades

Port Renfrew CRD – Water System Upgrades

An ongoing project to upgrade the capacity of the water system in Port Renfrew, BC to allow for continued growth within the community.

The first phase of the Port Renfrew project involved upgrading the well pump, booster pumps and the associated piping and controls in order to increase the water supply available to the town. The second phase will involve upgrades to the town’s storage capacity by adding a second reservoir, providing increased water supply for fire protection and emergency storage.

 

Elkington Forest

Elkington Forest

Elkington Forest is a development located near Shawnigan Lake on Vancouver Island.

It is a phased development with the ultimate plan for 97 homes and 15 businesses to be constructed within a managed forest property. MSR Solutions provided design and construction inspection services for the first phase of the development. This included the access road to the development and servicing of the first 18 lots as per Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure standards.

In commissioning phase for the water and wastewater treatment plants.

Osprey Landing, Wardner BC

Osprey Landing, Wardner BC

An advanced secondary treatment system with disposal to Rapid Infiltration Basins was designed and commissioned for an 81 home recreational development in Wardner BC.

After construction of the treatment plant was completed, the development was put on hold. Once the development resumed MSR Solutions provided guidance for reinstating the system, provided commissioning services for the treatment plant and lift stations and secured a filing under the Municipal Wastewater Regulation. A unique aspect of this project was our ability to identify and implement an effective strategy for maximizing the value that could be retained from equipment that had been idle.
