Sewer system clean-up & video inspection in flood-impacted communities

During the month of August, The City Of Calgary, Water Services will be conducting sanitary main video inspections and power-flushing in the following neighbourhoods: 
  • Sunnyside
  • Beltline
  • Erlton
  • Elbow Park
  • Rideau
The video inspection is to assess sanitary infrastructure and is part of The City’s proactive underground infrastructure maintenance program.  Cleaning through power-flushing is to remove any deposits of sediment, silt and debris in the both the storm and sanitary sewer systems that may have been deposited due to the flood event. Flushing the system ensures efficient operation and reduces any potential future impacts to residents or businesses.
 
Other flood-impacted communities will have the same video inspections and power flushing treatments performed on a planned maintenance schedule. Please note that this work schedule may change due to unplanned issues or emergency priority-work. The City is committed to completing this work in as timely manner as possible. 
 
If you have any questions or concerns or would like more information, please call 311.
