Municipal wastewater consists of 99% water from stormwater and homes/businesses from washing, flushing etc. When a treatment plant or treatment process is overwhelmed, a bypass or overflow can occur. These events are often caused by heavy rainfall and/or snowmelt. During a by-pass or overflow, partially treated wastewater is diverted away from a treatment process to prevent backups, overflows or damage to the system.
Residents can help by conserving water by delaying or limiting unnecessary usage such as laundry, taking long showers or running the dishwasher during rain storms. You can also help by keeping our pipes clear - no wipes in the pipes!

The Government of Ontario has renewed Northern Ontario Resource Development Support (NORDS) funding for an additional three years, providing the City of Timmins with $400,000 annually to support key infrastructure priorities in the community.
NORDS funding helps municipalities across Northern Ontario invest in infrastructure that is impacted by resource development, while also supporting broader economic development initiatives.
“The renewal of this funding is important for our community,” says Mayor Michelle Boileau. “Resource development, like mining, drives our local and provincial economy forward, but it also places pressure on our infrastructure. The province’s investment recognizes that infrastructure is a shared asset and allows us to plan and invest strategically to support residents, industry, and future growth.”
The City of Timmins remains committed to working with provincial partners to ensure these investments deliver long-term benefits for the community.
