Assessment, permitting, design, supply, installation, and maintenance of water and wastewater systems for remote and regulated sites across Canada.
From first assessment to long-term maintenance, the team helps turn complex site conditions into practical, compliant systems.
Every site has different access, loading, soil, climate, permitting, and operating constraints. Start with your industry, then see the services and technologies Canadian Shield can bring together.
Water and wastewater systems for exploration sites, mining camps, remote industrial projects, and temporary workforces where access, timing, and compliance all matter.
Wastewater, drinking water, and rainwater solutions for Ontario campground operators, resorts, lodges, wineries, parks, and seasonal properties planning upgrades or expansion.
Water and wastewater planning for First Nations, remote communities, and Far North projects that need practical systems, clear documentation, and long-term reliability.
Some projects cannot wait for a permanent system before work begins. Canadian Shield can help evaluate whether a pre-approved mobile wastewater treatment approach is the right fit for remote camps, mining exploration, seasonal operations, construction projects, events, or emergency situations. All mobile systems are supported by pre-approved Mobile ECA (Environmental Compliance Approval) from Ontario MEP
Canadian Shield is strongest when projects need more than one service. The team can connect assessment, permitting, technology selection, product supply, construction support, and maintenance into one practical path.
Compliance audits and reports, environmental impact and site assessments, dewatering review, monitoring wells, remediation planning, soil testing, regulatory support, and engineered design for regulated projects.
Wastewater ManagementAssessment, design, technology selection, installation coordination, inspection, maintenance, and troubleshooting for residential, commercial, industrial, mining, tourism, municipal, and First Nations wastewater needs.
Drinking Water SystemsDesign, supply, installation support, engineering reports, audits, sampling, filtration, disinfection, monitoring, maintenance, and regulator liaison for drinking water systems.
Rainwater HarvestingSystem design, collection components, cisterns and tanks, filtration, treatment, installation support, maintenance, winterization, and water quality testing for sustainable water supply.
Research, Sampling and MonitoringSampling, detecting, treating, preventing, monitoring, reporting, blue-green algae work, groundwater review, and research partnerships for environmental and treatment-system questions.
Construction ServicesSewage system installation and decommissioning, monitoring well installation, excavation, land clearing, road and culvert work, and local field support where scope and location fit.
AggregatesQuarry aggregates delivered across Northern Ontario: granular A and B, crusher run, clear stone, sand, rip rap, armor stone, recycled concrete, and rock fill.
Canadian Shield does not force every project into one product. System recommendations should reflect flows, loading, discharge requirements, soil, bedrock, climate, access, operating season, maintenance expectations, and the approval path.
Compare TechnologiesProject pages should show the challenge, the system selected, the services provided, and the outcome. Client names and details should only be used where approved.
What clients say about working with Canadian Shield Consultants Agency.
"I would be happy to recommend Canadian Shield Consultants Agency and I would hire them again if the need arose."
"In my opinion, the true test of a good business is whether or not you would use their services again. In the case of Canadian Shield Consultants Agency, Gerry and his crew, the answer is we still are using their services and we consider them our "Go To" guys!"
"Throughout the entire month long project CSCA did not veer from the original goal and made MRWs time in St. Charles a positive experience."
"We are very thankful for all that Gerry and his company have done for us up to now...their expertise and assistance has facilitated the process of purchasing a good quality septic system that meets the Ministry of Environment's standards."
"We were very impressed with your heavy duty machinery, and realized we were not dealing with a start-up company. All workmen on the site knew their jobs and performed all labour with such care and skill. I must add a personal comment that the workers were very amicable, answered all our questions and did not mind the interruptions when we asked for clarification as to what they were doing"
