Flood Reporting Noted by Toronto Water Districts

This dataset is no longer being maintained. Please see Basement Flooding by Ward for the latest update. Flooding calls received by Toronto Water District Operations. A Service Request is created based on the phone calls 311 and the location is investigated. There are two types of service requests tracked using the following codes: SCBLK Sanitary/Combined sanitary service line blockage is the customer service request for any kind of blockage relating to a property owner's sanitary/combined service line that is connected to our sanitary/combined sewer main. Typically, a resident is unaware of a blockage and contacts the City about their drain not draining normally, sewage backing up into their basement, and/or their basement flooded. Only upon inspection of a properly installed access point can the City determine the issue and what is blocking/preventing the sanitary/combined service line from flowing. STEVN Created in 2013, as a result of the July 8, 2013 Storm Event, to differentiate a blockage in the sanitary/combined service line from basement flooding as a result of a significant rainfall event.
