This project aims to review pricing strategies used in other jurisdictions that charge for a wide range of wastewater contaminants other than biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS) and volume and evaluate these strategies for use in the Metro Vancouver context. Includes recommendations to develop similar pricing strategies for contaminants, and the information and data required to develop the new contaminant fees.
