No Wastewater Was Released into Wascana Creek

The City confirms that no wastewater was released into Wascana Creek last week.

The previously released information that 1.3 megaliters of wastewater were discharged into the creek on September 13 was inaccurate. Although flow rates reached high levels and the City’s warning alarms indicated a bypass may be imminent, the wastewater system maintained sufficient capacity for the full duration of the storm and subsequent system analysis over the last few days confirmed that all wastewater was contained.

The City has updated our downstream users with this positive news.
