Water Treatment Plant Development

Since the 1950s, Hinton's pulp mill has provided potable water for Town of Hinton residents plus treated and disposed of wastewater and sewage. In 2024, Hinton signed new agreements with Mondi, the pulp mill owner, and responsibility for potable water production and wastewater and sewer treatment will be tranferred to the Town over the next 25 years. That includes constructing a new Town-owned water treatment plant by 2046.
