Toronto Swimming Pool Owners – Avoid Fines!

pgavel — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:17:19 +0000

Taken from the Pool & Hot Tub Council of Canada’s website:

Toronto Storm Sewer By-Law Update: Be Aware that it is currently illegal to pump water from a swimming pool into a City of Toronto storm sewer. Pool companies and consumers are subject to a $5,000 fine per incident. The City of Toronto, in conjunction with the Pool & Hot Tub Council of Canada and the Metropolitan Toronto Conservation Authority have developed some pending legislation that will change the way we remove water from a swimming pool. The legislation is designed to protect the environment and allow swimming pool companies to pump swimming pool water to storm sewers again. However, the pending legislation is not expected to be passed until early July 2008 and will be enforced immediately. Until that time, no pumping of swimming pool water into a storm sewer will be allowed.

Note: Current legislation does not affect the pumping of water from the top of a pool cover in the Spring. Pool cover water is deemed natural and can be pumped into the storm sewer provided it is debris free. Also: Water that can be pumped onto and contained on a consumers lawn or water that can be pumped into the sanitary sewer is not governed by these new criteria. Pending New Legislation: The pending new legislation will dictate the condition of the water that can be pumped into the cities storm sewers. As part of the legislation, the Pool & Hot Tub Council will produce a document and make training available to assist swimming pool companies to attain compliance once the legislation has passed.
