Kingston Is Making An Effort To Sustain Clean Water Supply

Besides the Ravensview upgrades, the City of Kingston (Utilties Kingston in particular) is putting a great effort into securing a safe, sustainable and plentiful water supply for the future.

Orignial sewers were built in Kingston as far back as the 1800's. As a result of their age, sewage flowed directly into the harbour without treatment for many years.

Utilties Kingston states that a better plan was implemented in the 1950's, 1980's and again in the early 90's...

For the past few years there has been an elevation in pollution concern and overflow concern... projects are underway in many areas to address these issues.

Although the map provided is hard to read, it does highlight some key areas in which projects have taken place OR are taking place today!
