The City of Richmond Hill is undertaking the Driftwood Pond Stormwater Management Facility (SWMF 8-2) Feasibility Study to determine the best means of rehabilitating the facility.

Driftwood Pond is located east of Driftwood Court between Bond Crescent and Timber Valley Avenue. The study will evaluate a range of alternatives to determine the best solution to restore or improve the function of the facility. Multiple field investigations are needed to determine the current condition of the facility. These investigations will include:

• a topographic survey
• hydrogeological investigations (surface water sampling and groundwater monitoring)
• sediment sampling
• natural heritage surveys
• archaeological investigation

It is anticipated that the field investigations will begin late-May 2023 and are expected to continue into the fall as late as October 2023.
