Summary: Since 2014, Quebec municipalities have committed to improving the monitoring and control of combined sewer overflows in order to preserve the vitality of our waterways. The choice of solutions to be implemented remains a major challenge given the technical and monetary constraints specific to each sector. The application of green infrastructure on a large scale on the territory to counter combined sewer overflows is an interesting alternative, especially when this solution is integrated with real-time monitoring technologies of the sewer network. This webinar will explore in more detail the potential benefits of integrating these two measures for various applications.
