Liquid Waste Management plans allow the CRD and local governments to develop community specific solutions for the management of liquid waste, stormwater and environmental protection in accordance with the BC Environmental Management Act.

The Core Area Liquid Waste Management Plan was created for the cities of Victoria, Langford and Colwood, the districts of Oak Bay and Saanich, the Township of Esquimalt and the Town of View Royal. Section 5 of the plan addresses management of inflow and infiltration and control of wastewater overflows. The current Plan was originally approved by the Minister of Environment in 2003 and was last updated with Amendment 12 in 2018.

The CRD is updating Section 5 of the Plan to explain how it will reduce overflows that happen during storms which are expected to occur more than once every five years. The proposed approach of reducing and eliminating overflows during these storm events is intended to be a practical solution that meets regulatory requirements while ensuring long-term environmental protection.

The feedback period has now closed. Thank you for your comments. Feedback will be incorporated into a final amendment package to the CRD Board for submission to the provincial regulator.
