Undertaken by Brampton-based Metric Contracting Services, the $1.45-million project encompasses the excavation/construction of two rain gardens comprised of shallow above-grade dry ponds, each with large below-grade stormwater storage basins. The larger pond is equipped with a 4,300-square-metre (46,284 square-feet) basin and the second basin is 1,200 square metres (12,916 square feet) in size.
