With decades of combined experience in Ontario’s water and wastewater industry, we deliver reliable, professional operational services for private, municipal, commercial, and industrial facilities. Our focus is on regulatory compliance, operational reliability, and long-term performance. Our operations team has experience in remote operations as well as federal and industrial facilities.

Clearford manages several hundred water and wastewater systems across Ontario, supported by our operational hubs providing local, 24/7 service. This widespread presence allows us to respond quickly to emergencies and provide hands-on, tailored operational support wherever it’s needed.

What We Do

Our Operations team provides end-to-end support, from early-stage design input to commissioning, daily operations, and regulatory compliance. Early engagement ensures decisions on treatment technology, site layout, operator accessibility, safety, and cost efficiency are optimized for long-term operational success.

Reliable Water & Wastewater Operations

We deliver long-term operations and maintenance for water and wastewater facilities, supported by 24/7 emergency response, regulatory compliance monitoring and reporting, and optimized, cost-effective operational solutions.

What We Operate

Clearford operates and maintains a wide range of water and wastewater treatment systems and is not tied to any single treatment technology. Our team has hands-on experience with wastewater processes such as membrane bioreactors (MBR), moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBR), sequencing batch reactors (SBR), rotating biological contactors (RBC), and extended aeration, as well as drinking water systems utilizing reverse osmosis, microfiltration, media and cartridge filtration, UV disinfection, and chemical treatment. We support facilities supplied by both groundwater and surface water sources. This breadth of experience enables us to effectively operate, monitor, and optimize system performance while ensuring reliable, compliant treatment tailored to the specific needs of each site and community we serve.

Maintenance and Reliability

Our proactive maintenance approach focuses on planned inspections, preventative and predictive maintenance, and equipment lifecycle management. By carefully documenting and tracking maintenance, we protect assets, reduce costs, and prevent operational disruptions.

Emergency Response

Clearford’s 24/7 emergency response goes beyond the facility. From natural events to operational disruptions, we act immediately to protect your system, the environment, and the community, ensuring safety and compliance at every step. Our 24/7 emergency response ensures that we can quickly identify, report, and respond to any situation that disrupts operations or risks environmental and public safety.

Remote Mining Operations

We provide specialized water and wastewater operations for remote mining sites, combining decades of industry experience with solutions tailored to challenging locations. We support mining and oil and gas operations through every stage of system commissioning, start-up, and ongoing operations for domestic water, wastewater, and tailings management.
