Downspout Survey – November 2021

By Events, Issues, Resources, Ward 1

What are you doing?
The Region of Peel has retained Infrastructure Intelligence Services Inc. to complete a downspout survey within your neighbourhood. The survey area is shown on the map.

Why?
Some downspouts may be connected to the sanitary
(wastewater) sewers. Connected downspouts can overwhelm the sanitary sewer pipes during rain events and possibly result in flooding. The downspout survey helps the Region plan for necessary actions.
