<p>The City&#8217;s Stormwater Management team is planning maintenance at the Glen Cairn Stormwater Facility at 820 Terry Fox Drive (between Terry Fox Drive and the Abbottsville Crossing neighbourhood, north of Abbott Street East.)</p>
<p>Residents will see lower water levels in the stormwater pond and equipment on site. A contractor will be replacing three damaged backwater checkvalves at the facility. Water from the pond will be pumped to the Carp River Flood control basin to the north-west.</p>
<p>The dewatering pumps that will be used are “critically-silenced pumps”, meaning they have a built-in enclosure to dampen the noise produced while pumping.  When the work is complete, pumps will be removed and the pond will be allowed to fill back up to its normal water level.</p>
<p>The formal pathway on the east side of the pond will remain open, but access to some of the informal pathways will be limited to ensure safety.</p>
<p>The work will start on Monday, August 18 and should wrap up on Friday, August 22.</p>
<p>For more information, please contact<strong> Alden Crossman, </strong>Project Specialist, Stormwater Engineering Unit, at 613-580-2424 ext. 24216 or  <a href="mailto:Alden.Crossman@Ottawa.ca" data-outlook-id="276dbdf6-b759-4995-952e-cb8ea8eaf7b7">Alden.Crossman@Ottawa.ca</a></p>

<h2>L’entretien de la station de gestion des eaux pluviales de Glen Cairn commence le 18 août</h2>
<p>L’équipe de gestion des eaux pluviales de la Ville prévoit des travaux d’entretien à l’installation de gestion des eaux pluviales de Glen Cairn, située au 820, promenade Terry-Fox (entre la promenade Terry-Fox et le quartier Abbottsville Crossing, au nord de la rue Abbott Est).</p>
<p>Les résidents pourront constater une baisse du niveau d’eau dans le bassin de rétention des eaux pluviales et la présence de machinerie sur le site. Un entrepreneur remplacera trois clapets antiretour endommagés à l’installation. L’eau de l’étang sera pompée dans le bassin de rétention de la rivière Carp au nord-ouest.</p>
<p>Les pompes d’assèchement qui seront utilisées sont des « pompes silencieuses critiques », ce qui signifie qu’elles ont une enceinte intégrée pour atténuer le bruit produit pendant le pompage. Une fois les travaux terminés, les pompes seront retirées et l’étang pourra se remplir à nouveau jusqu’à son niveau d’eau normal.</p>
<p>Le sentier officiel du côté est de l’étang restera ouvert, mais l’accès à certains des sentiers informels sera limité pour assurer la sécurité.</p>
<p>Les travaux commenceront le lundi 18 août et devraient se terminer le vendredi 22 août.</p>
<p>Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements, veuillez communiquer avec <strong>Alden Crossman</strong>, spécialiste de projet, Unité des soumissions d’ingénierie liées aux eaux pluviales, au 613-580-2424 poste 24216, ou à l’adresse <a href="mailto:Alden.Crossman@Ottawa.ca">Alden.Crossman@Ottawa.ca</a>.</p>

<p>The City&#8217;s Stormwater Management team is planning maintenance at the Glen Cairn Stormwater Facility at 820 Terry Fox Drive (between Terry Fox Drive and the Abbottsville Crossing neighbourhood, north of Abbott Street East.)</p>
<p>The work involves a &#8220;drawdown&#8221; to lower the water level in the pond so that submerged chambers and piping can be inspected. Water levels in the main cell of the pond will be lowered over a metre from its current level of ~93.45 metres to a level below 92.14 metres. A de-watering contractor will pump water from the pond to the Carp River flood control basin to the north west.</p>
<p>Stormwater field staff will conduct a fish recovery operation as the level of the pond draws down. Fish will be captured and relocated to an upstream area of the pond. A permit from the Ministry of Natural Resources has been received for the fish recovery work.</p>
<p>The work should take one full working day, starting early in the morning and wrapping up by 5:00pm. When the work is complete, pumps will be removed and the pond will be allowed to fill back up.</p>
<p>The work is scheduled for July 23 from 7:00am-5:00pm, with a rain date of July 30, 2024.</p>

<h3 style="font-weight: 400;">Entretien de l’installation de gestion des eaux pluviales de Glen Cairn prévu le 23 juillet</h3>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">L’équipe de gestion des eaux pluviales de la Ville prévoit des travaux d’entretien à la l’installation de gestion des eaux pluviales de Glen Cairn, située au 820, promenade Terry-Fox (entre la promenade Terry-Fox et le quartier Abbottsville Crossing, au nord de la rue Abbott Est).</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Les travaux consistent à abaisser le niveau de l’eau dans l’étang afin de pouvoir inspecter les chambres et les conduites d’eau immergées. Dans la cavité principale, le niveau de l’eau sera abaissé d’un peu plus d’un mètre (il passera de 93,45 m à 92,14 m). Un entrepreneur spécialisé dans l’assèchement pompera l’eau de l’étang pour la déverser dans le bassin de rétention de la rivière Carp au nord-ouest.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Les techniciens chargés de la gestion des eaux pluviales sur le terrain récupéreront les poissons pendant le drainage et les mettront dans une zone de l’étang en amont. Le ministère des Richesses naturelles leur a délivré un permis à cette fin.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Le processus devrait durer une journée complète (début tôt le matin et fin avant 17 h). Une fois l’opération terminée, les pompes seront enlevées et l’étang pourra être rempli à nouveau.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Ces travaux auront lieu le 23 juillet, de 7 h à 17 h. En cas de pluie, ils seront reportés au 30 juillet.</p>
