Beulah Camp Wastewater Treatment Plant, Greenwich Parish, New Brunswick

Beulah Camp is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Greenwich Parish, Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada. The facility serves a small population of 127 residents, operating under Canada's federal and provincial wastewater regulations. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is appropriate for its small scale. Under the Canada-wide Strategy for the Management of Municipal Wastewater Effluent, secondary treatment is the minimum standard for facilities discharging to freshwater environments, ensuring adequate removal of organic matter and suspended solids. The treated effluent is discharged into the local watershed, which ultimately drains to the Bay of Fundy via the Saint John River system. The Bay of Fundy is a globally significant marine ecosystem known for its extreme tidal ranges and rich biodiversity, including critical habitats for migratory birds and marine species.

The plant discharges into the Saint John River watershed, which flows into the Bay of Fundy. This estuary supports diverse aquatic life, including fish species such as Atlantic salmon and striped bass, and provides important feeding grounds for migratory shorebirds. The Bay of Fundy's high tidal energy helps disperse treated effluent, but nutrient inputs from upstream sources require careful management to maintain water quality.
