The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to advise residents that sanitary sewer flushing, cleaning and inspection work will be conducted throughout the Town beginning Monday, October 16, 2023.
The sanitary sewer mains will be flushed/cleaned using high-pressure water between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m on the following dates:
- Monday, October 16, 2023
- Tuesday, October 17, 2023
- Wednesday, October 18, 2023
- Thursday, October 19, 2023
- Friday, October 20, 2023
There are no anticipated service-related impacts as a result of this work. However, residents should be aware that the high-pressure cleaning may empty drains and traps within nearby homes. In rare occasions, the pressure cleaning has resulted in water exiting drains and toilets. As a precaution, please close all toilet seats and cover internal drains in sinks, tubs and floors.
After the work is complete, please run water in all plumbing fixtures, including sinks, showers, tubs, and toilets, to ensure that the traps are full.
