2013 Summary Report for Drinking Water Systems
Introduction:
Ontario's Drinking Water System's Regulation (Ont. Reg. 170/03 Section 22), made
under the Safe Drinking Water Act, 2002, requires that the owner of a municipal
drinking water system prepare a Summary Report on the operation of the system and
the quality of its water. The Summary Report must be given to the members of the
municipal council where the drinking water system is owned by the municipality.
The City of Waterloo owns and operates a water distribution system, including pipes,
valves, hydrants, and water meters. The water source for this distribution system is the
Region of Waterloo's Integrated Urban System that encompasses, the Waterloo Well
System, the William St. Water Supply, the Mannheim Pumping Station Reservoir. The
City of Waterloo's distribution system does not provide treatment to the water where as,
the Region of Waterloo provides both primary and secondary treatment. Water
Distribution system sampling is completed by the Region of Waterloo's Environmental
Enforcement and Laboratory Services under contract to the City. The following report
has been prepared in accordance with Schedule 22 of the Drinking Water Systems
Regulation (O. Reg. 170/03) for members of Waterloo's Municipal Council. The
reporting period for this Summary Report is from January 1, 2013 to December 31,
2013. The following sections of the Report are organized in the same fashion and order
as Schedule 22 (Refer to Attachment 1).
22-1:
The City of Waterloo is a Large Municipal Residential System.
22-2 (1)a:
Members of Waterloo's Municipal Council will receive the Summary Report on or before
Thursday February 28, 2014.
22-2(2)a:
The Ontario government enacted a set of drinking water regulations under the Safe
Drinking Water Act, 2002. The Drinking Water Systems Regulation (O. Reg. 170/03)
came into effect June 1, 2003. The regulation prescribes requirements for owners and
operators of municipal and regulated non-municipal drinking water systems. In addition,
a number of supporting regulations have been enacted, including the Drinking Water
Quality Standards Regulation (O. Reg. 169/03) which prescribes standards for 161
chemical/physical, microbiological, and radiological parameters. The Definitions of
Words and Expressions Used in the Safe Drinking Water Act(O. Reg. 171/03) came
into effect on June 1, 2003.
1 - 3
The Safe Drinking Water Act, 2002 outlines the duties of owners and operating
authorities of municipal and regulated non-municipal drinking water systems, including
ensuring that:
• Water provided by the drinking water system meets drinking water quality
standards
• The drinking water system is operated in accordance with the Act and regulations
and is kept in good state of repair
• All facilities are appropriately staffed and supervised
• All sampling, testing, and monitoring requirements are complied with
• All reporting requirements are complied with. Specifically, an Annual Report
must be prepared in order that the public has access to the information on the
status of drinking water. The Annual Report will be posted on the City's website
by February 28.
• This Summary Report must also be prepared and provided to the municipal
Council
The City of Waterloo is part of the Integrated Urban Water Supply System. The
Integrated Urban System consists of the water supply and distribution systems of the
Cities of Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo, the communities of Elmira and St. Jacobs
within the Township of Woolwich, and the community of St. Agatha within the Township
of Wilmot. As these systems are interconnected, the Ministry of the Environment
considers this supply and distribution system as a single integrated system.
The Municipal Drinking Water Licensing Program (MDWLP), under the Safe Drinking
Water Act, 2002 and Ontario Regulation 188/07, required the City of Waterloo to
become licensed to operate and maintain Waterloo's water distribution system. The City
of Waterloo was awarded a Full Scope - Entire Accreditation in 2011 and the Ministry of
Environment issued a Municipal Drinking Water Licence (License)#112-101 and
Drinking Water Works Permit (DWWP)#112-201. The City of Waterloo has not received
any Order that the City's Drinking Water System has failed to meet.
22-2(2)b:
No Order to Comply, due to failure, was received and therefore no corrective measures
required.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
The Strange Street Well System is comprised of five ground water wells, KlOA, K11A, K13,
K18 and K19. These wells pump directly into the Strange Street Reservoir and Pumping Station.
The Strange Street Reservoir has a capacity of 940,000 imperial gallons (4.27 ML). The water is
disinfected prior to entering the reservoir.
Disinfection is achieved by the use of sodium hypochlorite systems consisting of solution tanks
complete with spill containment and protection and metering pumps dispensing commercial 12%
sodium hypochlorite solution, located at wells KlOA, K1 IA, K13 and K18/K19 prior to entering
the reservoir. Ammonium sulphate is added to the water at the discharge header of the pumping
station prior to the water leaving the station. The purpose of the ammonium sulphate is convert
free chlorine to the combined form, creating a more stable distribution disinfectant
Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of chlorine and turbidity prior to the water being
discharged. The analyzers are connected with the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant SCADA
system which is monitored by an operator 24 hours per day.
This site has no emergency standby power available on site.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
The K34 water supply is a groundwater supply consisting of two wells, K34 and K36, a
treatment facility and an in ground clear well/reservoir. The total storage capacity of the
reservoir is 90 cubic meters. Two high lift pumps are used to discharge the treated water into
the distribution system. The treatment facility has five closed pressure filters used for
removal of iron and manganese.
Disinfection is achieved by the use of a sodium hypochlorite system consisting of a solution
tank complete with spill containment and protection and two metering pumps dispensing
commercial 12% sodium hypochlorite solution. The sodium hypochlorite is also used as an
oxidizing agent prior to filtration. Upon discharge to the distribution system, 20%
ammonium sulphate is injected; which converts free chlorine to a more stable combined
chlorine.
Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of chlorine and turbidity. The analyzers are
connected with the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant SCADA system which is monitored by
an operator 24 hours per day.
There is no emergency stand-by electrical power at this facility.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
The Mannheim Water Treatment Plant receives raw water from the Hidden Valley Low Lift
Station located at the Grand River. The raw water entering the WTP is treated with coagulation,
flocculation, sedimentation, ozonation and filtration. Immediately after filtration, the water is
disinfected prior to entering the clearwells/reservoirs. There are two clearwells/reservoirs that
have a combined total usable volume of 15.28 ML.
Disinfection is achieved through ozonation, ultraviolet (UV) irradiation followed by chlorination
via a gas chlorination system. Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of ozone, chlorine,
turbidity and UV prior to the water being discharged. The analyzers are connected with the
Mannheim Water Treatment Plant SCADA system which is monitored by an operator 24 hours
per day.
The water from the Mannheim Aquifer Storage and Recovery Facilities (ASR1, ASR2, ASR3,
ASR4, RCW 1 and RCW2) can be mixed with the treated water and then stored in the
clearwells/reservoirs. This water is then directed to the Mannheim Pumping Station Reservoir,
where it blends with seven other ground water wells (K91, K92, K93, K94, K21, K25, and K29).
Treated water from the Mannheim Village wells (K22A, K23, K24 and K26) can also indirectly
supply the Mannheim Pumping Station Reservoir. This reservoir has a total storage capacity of
122.7 ML. Prior to the treated water being pumped into the distribution system, anhydrous
ammonia is injected to convert free chlorine to the combined form, creating a more stable
distribution disinfectant. As a backup to the anhydrous ammonia system, there is also the
capability to inject 20%liquid ammonium sulphate.
This facility has emergency standby power available.
List all water treatment chemicals used over this reporting period
Chlorine gas, 12% sodium hypochlorite, anhydrous ammonia,polyaluminum chloride
(coagulant),polyelectrolyte(filter aid), liquid oxygen (LOX), ozone, ultraviolet(UV)
irradiation, calcium thiosul hate granular activated carbon, 20% ammonium sulphate.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
The Greenbrook Well System is comprised of five ground water wells K1, K2, K413, K5A and
K8. These wells pump directly into the Greenbrook Treatment Plant and Pumping Station.
Iron and manganese removal is achieved through the use of three pressure filters. Following
filtration, treatment for 1,4-dioxane is accomplished by an advanced oxidation process using
50%hydrogen peroxide and Ultraviolet(UV) irradiation.
Treated water from the UV reactors proceeds through upflow Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
contactors before being transferred to 2 storage reservoirs with capacities of 2 million gallons
(approximately 10,000 cubic metres) and 500,000 gallons (approximately 2400 cubic metres).
Disinfection is achieved through Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and by the use of a sodium
hypochlorite system consisting of a solution tank complete with spill containment and protection
and a metering pump dispensing commercial 12% sodium hypochlorite solution. 20%
ammonium sulphate is added to the water at the discharge header of the pumping station prior to
the water leaving the station. The purpose of the ammonium sulphate is to convert free chlorine
to the combined form, creating a more stable distribution disinfectant.
Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of chlorine, turbidity and UV prior to the water being
discharged. The analyzers are connected with the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant SCADA
system which is monitored by an operator 24 hours per day.
There is no emergency standby power at this site.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
The Woolners Well Supply system is comprised of three wells: K80, K81, and K82. These
wells combine in a common header prior to entering the Ebydale UV Building. The water
from the three wells is injected with sodium hypochlorite located in the well houses of K81
and K82. The systems consist of solution tanks complete with spill containment and
protection and metering pumps dispensing commercial 12% sodium hypochlorite solution.
The water entering the Ebydale UV Building is then passed through an Ultraviolet(UV)
system, which provides primary disinfection. Ammonium sulphate is then added to the water
at the discharge header prior to the water leaving the station. The purpose of the ammonium
sulphate is to convert the free chlorine residual to a more stable combined chlorine residual.
Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of chlorine, turbidity and UV prior to the water
being discharged. The analyzers are connected with the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant
SCADA system which is monitored by an operator 24 hours per day.

has a capacity of three million imperial gallons (14,000 cubic meters). The water is disinfected
prior to entering the reservoir.
Disinfection is achieved by the use of a sodium hypochlorite system consisting of a solution tank
complete with spill containment and protection and a metering pump dispensing commercial
12% sodium hypochlorite solution. Ammonium sulphate is added to the water at the discharge
header of the pumping station prior to the water leaving the station. The purpose of the
ammonium sulphate is to convert free chlorine to the combined form, creating a more stable
distribution disinfectant. These chemical systems are located at Parkway Reservoir and Pumping
Station.
Continuous analyzers monitor the levels of chlorine and turbidity prior to the water being
discharged. The analyzers are connected with the Mannheim Water Treatment Plant SCADA
system which is monitored by an operator 24 hours per day.
This site has no emergency standby power available on site.
