Building #8 is a sanitary sewer lift station located at 5108-59 Street.
Lift stations move water from lower to higher elevations. Once the water is lifted high enough, it can continue flowing by gravity. Wastewater from nearly all of Cold Lake South (west of highway 28) flows into this building. About 300,000 litres of wastewater is received here every day. There are three pumps inside this building that can pump over 200 liters of wastewater per second. The pumps alternate about every 15 minutes. The wastewater is pumped to a manhole about 850 metres away before gravity moves it to Building #9.
