Project Overview
The City of Toronto has initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) study to 1) address water quality issues in Black Creek and Humber River due to the discharge of combined sewer overflows (CSO) within the study area boundary; and 2) assess the causes of flooding and develop solutions to reduce the risk of future surface and basement flooding within basement flooding area 6. The map in this Notice shows the study area boundary and the two basement flooding areas within the

The Process
The study will follow the requirements set out in the Municipal Class EA document (amended 2007). It will define the problem, consider and evaluate alternative solutions, assess impacts of the proposed solutions, and identify measures to lessen any adverse impacts. Members of the public and interest groups will have opportunities to provide their input at key stages throughout the study.
