Published purpose

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.
