Liquid Waste Services

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​​​Metro Vancouver collects and treats the region's wastewater. We operate five wastewater treatment plants, maintain a region-wide network of sewers and pumping stations, and conduct regular environmental monitoring to ensure that the system is working well.

​Our main goals are to protect public health and the environment, use wastewater as a resource and minimize treatment costs.
