Sewer fogging is a technique designed to identify leaks or unauthorised connections which may be allowing stormwater to pass into our sewer network. This increases the risk of spills from our sewer manholes, sewer pump stations and wastewater treatment plants during heavy wet weather events.

The fog will move through pipes and come up from the ground if there is a leak. The fog looks like smoke, but does not smell and is harmless to people, pets, food and materials

Please see Fact Sheet here which contains answers to frequently asked questions regarding sewer fogging.
