Overview
The Iona Island Wastewater Treatment Plant Project is a new plant that will be built to replace the existing primary level treatment plant in Richmond, BC.
The new plant will be located on the site of the existing plant and will meet all provincial and federal regulations for wastewater treatment.
Protecting the Local Environment
Metro Vancouver wants to ensure the new wastewater treatment plant makes a positive contribution to the health and well-being of people and the environment.
The project will be designed to:
• Improve the level of treatment to continue to protect water quality and the marine environment
• Withstand an earthquake and sea level rise
• Integrate the plant with Iona Beach Regional Park and the surrounding environment
• Minimize odour
• Recover sustainable energy from wastewater

LOCATION OF THE IONA ISLAND WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
Metro Vancouver is upgrading the Iona Island Wastewater Treatment Plant to continue to protect public health and the environment in a growing region.
Iona Beach Regional Park is home to a rare community of sand dune plants, and sits in the midst of the Pacific Flyway – making it a mecca for thousands of migrating birds.

Project Timeline
The project is in the planning phase until December 31, 2019. The new plant will be designed and constructed between 2020 and 2030 and will be in operation by December 31, 2030.
Working with Our Partners and the Community
Metro Vancouver will work closely with stakeholders and First Nations to ensure the project considers their interests and fits with the community.
Metro Vancouver will:
• Meet with stakeholders and First Nations to listen to their interests and priorities
• Collaborate with interested stakeholders and First Nations on how the plant is integrated with Iona Beach Regional Park and the surrounding environment
• Collaborate with interested stakeholders and First Nations on resource recovery opportunities
• Provide information in a timely manner
• Take feedback to the project team and report back on how it has been addressed
• Establish a single point of contact the community can reach to discuss the project
The existing Iona Island Wastewater Treatment Plant was built in 1963 and has been expanded six times to accommodate population growth and treatments upgrades.
The 4km Iona Jetty is popular with people walking and cycling and offers views of the ocean, the nearby airport and migratory birds.
