The Honourable Ted Menzies, Minister of State (Finance), announced that the Government of Canada will contribute up to $9.95 million through the P3 Canada Fund towards the Evan-Thomas Water and Wastewater Treatment Facility project in Kananaskis Country, Alberta. Public-private partnerships are increasingly becoming an innovative solution to delivering the public infrastructure Canadians need in a way that represents the best value for taxpayers. This partnership will deliver a long-term, sustainable approach to water and wastewater management in the Evan-Thomas Provincial Recreation Area that is environmentally sustainable and safe to all surrounding communities. Once selected, the private sector partner will design, construct and provide partial financing for the Evan-Thomas Water and Wastewater Treatment Facility project. The partner will also be responsible for operations and maintenance of the new water treatment plant, the new wastewater treatment plant and the water storage and distribution systems for 10 years after construction is completed. Ownership of the facility will rest with the Alberta government. For more information: http://www.fin.gc.ca/n11/11-079-eng.asp
