EASTER FUN ABOUNDS AT FULLER LAKE
CVRD moving river sewage outfall PROJECT: ‘critical’ ANDREA RONDEAU CITIZEN
Municipal partners are starting the process to move a sewage outfall out of the Cowichan River. “It is critical that the CVRD and its partners start the process of moving this outfall,” said Cowichan Valley Regional District Board Chair Jon Lefebure. “Funding opportunities are available this year that make this project a priority. There are still many steps to take in the coming months before any change takes place.” One particular grant would pay 50 per cent of the approximately $22 million project costs, if the CVRD is successful in their application. The CVRD announced in a press release that they are amending the Central Sector Liquid Waste Management Plan.

Organizers, parents and kids were delighted to see clear sky replace earlier dark clouds and showers in time for the event. [LEXI BAINAS/CITIZEN]
