Flood Risk in the Dixie-Dundas Area Slide 1 Learn about how you can be better prepared for flooding from industry professionals. Visit their booths for resources, advice and more! Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 1 Slide 2 Flood Risk in the Dixie-Dundas Area Presented by TRCA and the City of Mississauga March 2, 2020 Slide 3 Presentation Outline • Understanding potential flooding in Mississauga • How are flood risks managed • Mississauga's mitigation projects • What can you do now, from the City's emergency management office • TRCA's flood management resources The information contained in this presentation is copyright © Toronto and Region Conservation Authority Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 3 Slide 4 Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 4 Flooding has been a concern for residents of the Toronto area since the area was first settled. On October 15 and 16, 1954, Toronto received 210 mm of rain in a 12-hour period. For our region, Hurricane Hazel remains the most severe flood in recorded history. Recognizing the importance of flood management, the Provincial government amended the Conservation Authorities Act to enable an Authority to acquire lands for recreation and conservation purposes. Slide 5 How are floodplain and flood risk maps made? Models of real (and Hypothetical Storms Existing topography planned) land-cover This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-NC Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 5 How are flood maps made? TRCA must ensure that if development occurs in areas that are likely to experience flooding and erosion that it is properly permitted in order to decrease the risk of loss of life, personal injury and property damage. Building in a floodplain can have major consequences and can also affect neighboring properties by changing the physical characteristics of the valley or flood plain, or drainage to these properties. Developing flood plain maps requires detailed river and floodplain information and a lot of science and engineering. The maps are created based on canned scenarios to help engineers understand the worst-case scenario for development and planning purposes. Flood maps are not necessarily based on floods experienced in the past. Slide 6 Flood Protection near Dixie-Dundas The Dixie-Dundas Channel and Dyke work​ together to provide flood protection to the City​ of Mississauga, specifically to the Dixie-Dundas​ neighbourhood, by reducing peak flows during​ flood events. Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 6 Slide 7 Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 7 The Dixie-Dundas cluster is subject to flooding due to a combination of capacity constraints in the river channel and backwater from multiple culvert crossings. Located on Little Etobicoke Creek, this cluster is near the intersection of Dixie Road and Dundas Street East in the city of Mississauga. It is a provincially designated Special Policy Area (SPA). The urbanized nature of the Little Etobicoke Creek watershed makes this cluster susceptible to flooding from intense summer thunderstorms. Significant flooding occurred during the July 8, 2013 storm when flows overtopped the engineered channel and began flowing south along Queen Frederica Drive.

Storm Drainage Engineer, Environmental Services CITY OF MISSISSAUGA Suite 800, 201 City Centre Dr. Mississauga, ON L5B 2T4 Subject: Dixie-Dundas Flood Mitigation Detailed Work Plan for an Expanded Environmental Assessment Using a Combined Schedule C Approach Dear Mr. Di Giandomenico: 1 INTRODUCTION Matrix Solutions is pleased to provide this work plan and cost estimate to the City of Mississauga (the City) for an expanded Dixie-Dundas flood mitigation environmental assessment (EA) to address flooding issues associated with the Little Etobicoke Creek. This letter follows our February 19, 2021 letter, which outlined options for expanding the scope of the EA. Alternative approaches were presented in our original letter which ensured the requirements of a Schedule C EA are addressed for the original study area (the project was initially scoped as a Schedule B) and incorporated the recent hydraulic modelling, which indicated that expansion of the study area downstream to include the Dundas Street crossing is required to ensure adequate and full consideration of project impacts. Additionally, options were provided to address additional channel stability concerns and an exposed sanitary sewer into the EA. After reviewing the alternatives, we understand the City has selected the combined Schedule C approach and confirmed that additional channel stability requirements and addressing the exposed sewer should be integrated into the EA scope. This current work plan builds off the previous letter, which was prepared to support City decision-making and to provide high-level costs.

  • TRCA Etobicoke Creek Watershed Characterization Report
    Etobicoke Creek Watershed Characterization Report June 2021 TRCA Etobicoke Creek Watershed Characterization Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Watershed planning helps to characterize overall watershed conditions and identify measures to protect, restore, or enhance the health of the watershed. Watershed characterization is one of the preliminary stages of the watershed planning process. The last Etobicoke Creek watershed plan was developed in 2002 with a Technical Update completed in 2010 that filled data gaps from the original plan and used updated science. It is important to regularly update watershed plans to review progress from previous plans, reflect current conditions, use the latest science, policies, and best practices, and adjust management approaches. This Characterization Report presents the findings from extensive monitoring data and technical analyses, organized as follows: 1. Introduction – provides an overview of watershed planning, the geographic context for Etobicoke Creek and land use change since 2002. 2. Existing Watershed Conditions – identifies the findings and results of watershed characterization and comprises the bulk of this report. This section explains the various technical analyses completed, identifies key findings, and presents detailed results for each technical component. 3. Policy Inventory – provides an overview of existing municipal policies as they relate to watershed planning broadly and Etobicoke Creek specifically. 4. Methodology – provides an overview of the technical methodologies used to complete the analyses for each technical component outlined in section 2. 5. Maps – contains the maps referenced as figures throughout the report. Etobicoke Creek forms the western end of Toronto and Region Conservation Authority’s (TRCA) jurisdiction, originating just south of the Oak Ridges Moraine in the Town of Caledon before flowing through the cities of Brampton, Mississauga, and Toronto, where it enters Lake Ontario.
