"City Engineer" means the Deputy City Manager, Environment and Infrastructure or their written designate.

Composite sample - defined

"composite sample" shall mean a sample which is composed of a series of grab samples taken at intervals during the sampling period.

Concentration - defined

"concentration" shall mean the content of any element or compound relative to the total volume in which it is contained.

Discharge - defined

"discharge" includes the acts of failing to prevent escape, emitting, and releasing.

Grab sample - defined

"grab sample" is a portion of the flow being sampled, taken at one particular time and place.

Hauled Liquid Waste – defined

“Hauled liquid waste” includes leachate and/or septage, which is transported by truck and discharged into the City’s sewage system under certain conditions, at a  hauled Liquid Waste Facility.

Hauled Liquid Waste Facility – defined

“Hauled Liquid Waste Depot” means an approved depot which may accept hauled liquid waste transported by truck and discharged into the City’s sewage system under certain conditions.

Hauled Liquid Waste Hauler – defined

“Hauled Liquid Waste Hauler” means an approved person who has the appropriate approvals and permits to the satisfaction of the City Engineer and who may discharge hauled liquid waste transported by truck at a hauled liquid facility.

High Strength Sewage - defined

“High Strength Sewage” means waste which exceeds the limits as set out in this by-law, and includes leachate where leachate is discharged to the sanitary sewage system, but does not include hauled liquid waste.

Leachate – defined

“Leachate” means contaminated water that is created in landfills, resulting from rain, melting snow or liquid within municipal garbage that filters through the landfill waste picking up and carrying with it dissolved materials. Where leachate is discharged to the sanitary sewage system, it is a form of High Strength Sewage. Where leachate is transported to and discharged into a Hauled Liquid Waste Facility, it shall be considered as Hauled Liquid Waste.

Public sewage works - defined

"public sewage works" shall mean all sewers, sewage systems, sewage pumping stations, sewage treatment plants and other works for the collection, acceptance, transmission, treatment and disposal of liquid-borne wastes and storm water. 

Sanitary sewer - defined

"sanitary sewer" shall mean that part of the public sewage works for the transmission of liquid-borne wastes.

Septage – defined

“Septage” includes all matter, liquid and solid, that is pumped out of septic tanks and holding tanks. Such tanks may be used in residential, commercial or industrial properties which are not connected to the City’s sewerage system. Where Septage is transported by truck for disposal at a Hauled Liquid Waste Facility, it shall be considered Hauled Liquid Waste.

Standard methods - defined

"standard methods" shall mean the use of validated test methods and procedures that are based on a recognized international, national, or regional standard methods by reputable technical organizations or by equipment manufacturer’s. The latest edition of a test methodwill be used by the City or by any agent testing on behalf of the City at the time of testing.

Storm sewer - defined

"storm sewer" shall mean a sewer, open channel, ditch or depression the purpose of which is to carry storm water.

Storm water - defined

"storm water" shall mean surface and rain water, melted snow and ice, swimming pool drain water, uncontaminated water carried in underground drains and groundwater.

Suspended solids - defined

"suspended solids" shall mean undissolved or insoluble total suspended matter which is borne by a liquid or contained in waste.

Waste - defined

"waste" includes all manner of liquids and liquid-borne matter, but does not include storm water entering a sewer.
