Over $662,000 Invested in Lagoon Upgrade at Meadow Lake Provincial Park
The completion of the Lac Des Isles Sewage Lagoon Upgrade in Meadow Lake Provincial Park was announced by the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Housing, Infrastructure, and Communities, alongside Saskatchewan’s Minister of Parks, Culture, and Sport, Laura Ross.
For this project, the Government of Canada contributed $315,000, while the Government of Saskatchewan contributed $347,000. The entire upgrade was finished in mid-May 2023.
Minister Sean Fraser stated, “Reliable water and wastewater infrastructure protects the health and fosters the growth of our communities. I am pleased to see these upgrades as part of the Lac Des Isles project completed. The federal government’s investment in this project has helped to ensure the protection of the park’s natural heritage so that it may continue to be enjoyed by future generations.”
Minister Laura Ross added, “The Meadow Lake Provincial Park Lagoon is a key piece of infrastructure, and the latest of many upgrades being completed across the province. Our government is proud to invest more than $14 million into Saskatchewan’s provincial parks this year, ranging from new Visitor Centres and campgrounds to accessibility and infrastructure improvements. We are committed to providing Saskatchewan’s residents and guests with the best visitor experience in our parks so people can continue to make lasting memories with friends and family.”
The upgraded lagoon now serves the Murray Doell and Sandy Beach campgrounds at Meadow Lake. The improvements included relining the lagoon, increasing its treatment capacity, and re-routing the emissions, all to meet provincial and federal regulatory standards.
Both governments share a common priority of providing reliable and sustainable infrastructure for the well-being and enjoyment of their communities.
