The City of Toronto's Design Criteria for Sewers and Watermains, second edition, published by Engineering & Construction Services for engineering submissions on development and capital projects. Six chapters cover engineering submissions, sanitary sewers, storm sewers, watermains, lot grading and material specifications, taking in drawing requirements and as-built submissions, geotechnical investigation, piling and shoring, the transfer of review program, easement types and minimum widths, population equivalents, design flows, hydraulic grade lines and basement flooding protection. The City links to it by its easement widths table rather than by name.
