Protecting Wastewater Treatment and Implementing Stormwater Smart Ponds in Edmonton, Alberta

FY 2024-25 · 2024-10-07

Summary
The City of Edmonton is centered along the banks of the North Saskatchewan River and is at risk of urban and riverine flooding due to severe rainfall events, impacting critical infrastructure such as the Gold Bar Wastewater Treatment Plant. The proposed project would be comprised of two key components: Creating Smart Ponds by installing flow and water level sensors on wet ponts; and flood hardening the Gold Bar Wastewater Treatment Plant by installing backflow prevention outfall gates as well as a permanent flood barrier.

Description (French)
La ville d'Edmonton est située sur les rives de la rivière Saskatchewan Nord et est exposée à des risques d'inondation urbaine et fluviale en raison de fortes précipitations, ce qui a des répercussions sur des infrastructures essentielles comme la station de traitement des eaux usées de Gold Bar. Le projet proposé comprendrait deux éléments clés : La création d'étangs intelligents par l'installation de capteurs de débit et de niveau d'eau sur les ponts humides ; et la protection contre les inondations de la station de traitement des eaux usées de Gold Bar par l'installation de vannes anti-refoulement et d'une barrière permanente contre les inondations.
