The County of Annapolis provides sewer service and operates three sewage treatment plants in Nictaux, Bridgetown, and Cornwallis Park. We also provide sewer service to residents on Junction Road, in Lequille, Granville Ferry, Bear River, and in Deep Brook through agreements with neighbouring municipalities.

Our staff closely monitor treatment protocols as determined by Nova Scotia Environment. Municipal Staff collect and test samples on a weekly basis at an independent lab and report the results to Nova Scotia Environment. Inspections and required repairs are carried out to all plants and systems as needed, and a computerized monitoring system scans each system 24 hours a day and alerts our staff to any issues that may arise immediately. In addition, staff are available by phone 24 hours a day to respond to service interruptions.
