City of Toronto Corrosion Control Plan

In 2014, the City of Toronto began incorporating phosphate into the drinking water treatment process as part of a corrosion control strategy. This approach is approved and regulated by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP). The addition of phosphate helps create a protective layer inside pipes and plumbing fixtures, which reduces the likelihood of lead entering the tap water. Ongoing water quality tests have consistently shown lower lead levels compared to those recorded before the implementation of the corrosion control treatment.
