The new equipment ordered to address odour and noise at the Hants Border Wastewater Treatment Plant is now in place.

The action taken to combat odour in the spring and summer of 2025 greatly reduced the odour, but new concerns arose about the noise from the blower equipment used to address the smell.

A new, custom-ordered silencer was delivered in September, and crews worked fast to get it installed by Sept. 17.

The Municipality of the County of Kings thanks community members for their patience and understanding as staff worked to address the odour and noise.

Future updates about the Hants Border Wastewater Treatment Plant will be shared on this new webpage.
