Abstract

During the fall of 1984, a dry weather outfall survey was conducted on the sections of Mimico Creek within the City of Etobicoke boundaries. The survey was conducted as part of the ongoing Toronto Area Watershed Management Strategy Study (TAWMS) and was carried out with regard to the following specific objectives: 1. To inventory and document all existing outfalls on Mimico Creek within the City of Etobicoke. 2. To assess the loadings and concentrations of selected contaminants discharged in dry weather from the existing outfalls to Mimico Creek. 3. To identify and prioritize, on the basis of observations, outfalls discharging contaminants in concentrations in excess of modified municipal sewer-use bylaws.
