Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP)

The Sanitary Sewer Management Plan, prepared by the Public Works Department, outlines and documents the activities that we utilize to manage our wastewater collection system effectively. Effective management of a collection system includes:

  • Minimizing the number and impact of sanitary sewer spills.
  • Providing adequate sewer capacity to convey peak flows.
  • Maintaining and improving the condition of the collection system infrastructure to provide reliable service into the future.
