Major clog in Mission, B.C.’s sewer system credited to pair of sweatpants
“While the team quickly got to work removing the mess and repairing the damage, it was a good reminder that the only things that should be flushed down a toilet are toilet paper, poo, and pee,” City of Mission staff said in a release.
The city is using the incident to remind its residents that many items should not be flushed, especially clothing items.“Our collection system, pipes, and wastewater treatment plant run best when processing what they are intended for,” said Colin McLean, City of Mission’s utility operations manager. “This is a friendly reminder to stay sewer savvy for the good of our system. This will ensure everyone in the community continues to receive optimal sewer service at all times.”
