MRC Beauharnois Salaberry

What MRC Beauharnois Salaberry does

MRC de Beauharnois-Salaberry is a regional county municipality (MRC) established under the Code municipal du Québec in 1982, serving approximately 72,000 residents across seven constituent municipalities: Beauharnois, Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Sainte-Martine, Saint-Étienne-de-Beauharnois, Saint-Stanislas-de-Kostka, Saint-Urbain-Premier, and Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague. It is a public government entity — not a privately held company — with statutory authority over regional land use planning, residual materials management (governed by PGMR 2023-2029), environmental protection, cultural development, civil security, fire safety, regional park operations, and economic development. The MRC is governed by a Council of Mayors holding 10 regular sessions per year and led by Directrice générale et greffière-trésorière Linda Phaneuf.

Its core operational deliverables include curbside waste collection services (domestic, recyclable, organic, and bulky items), ecocentre drop-off facilities, and an online citizen request portal (portail.mrcbhs.ca) for waste collection requests, bin repairs, and sorting inquiries. A central strategic initiative is RIVMO, a jointly-controlled intermunicipal organization with MRC de Roussillon responsible for constructing and operating a $36.8 million organic waste composting platform in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield. The MRC also operates the Projet Signature Innovation (PSI) — D'eau et de culture recreotourism circuit integrating arts, multimedia, and waterfront urban design across the territory, and delivers cultural development programs under a renewed Entente de développement culturel ($475,212 through March 2027). Its technology stack is conventional government web architecture; the most notable digital asset is the self-service request portal, which replaces prior manual submission channels.

The MRC's funding model is public-sector: it does not generate commercial revenue. Its budget is sourced from contributions by member municipalities (effectively property-tax derived), provincial government grants (notably $1,345,161 from MAMH and MELCCFP under the ATCL convention for its first climate action plan), and service fees. Service delivery is free or subsidized at point of use for citizens. Distribution is regional and direct — through MRC headquarters at 2 rue Ellice, Beauharnois, the 7 municipal offices, ecocentres, curbside collection routes, the digital portal, and public council sessions. The organization has 11-50 employees and no disclosed revenue or financial statements.
