2026 Fall Sanitary Sewer Flushing, Cleaning and Inspections

Maintenance / Service Disruptions

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 Thursday, October 15, 2026.

The sanitary sewer mains will be flushed/cleaned using high-pressure water between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Work is expected to be completed by end of day on Friday, October 23, pending weather and conditions.

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.
