All discharges to the Municipal Sewer Systems are regulated by the City of Barrie’s Sewer Use By-law. Discharge of water originating from a source other than the City’s Municipal Drinking Water System and leachate to the municipal sanitary sewer is prohibited unless authorized by a Discharge Agreement. Discharge of non-contact cooling water and water from dewatering activities to the municipal storm sewer is prohibited unless authorized by a Discharge Agreement.

A Discharge Agreement may be entered with respect to the discharge of wastewater or groundwater which contains water that has originated from a source other than the City water supply system. Detailed information, samples and studies relating to the quality, quantity and flow rate of the discharge must be provided to the City of Barrie before an approval for a Discharge Agreement to the Municipal Sewer Systems can be considered.
