Credit: CONSERVATION OFFICERS SERVICE		 A Victoria company that cleans building exteriors and roofs has been fined $11,000 by the province for discharging a toxic substance into a storm drain that flowed into Sidney’s Reay Creek, killing 300 fish and setting back restoration of the waterway.
 

Elevate Exterior Washing Ltd. received the administrative penalty after a roof de-mossing mixture containing bleach and surfactant was spilled into the creek.

Ian Bruce, executive co-ordinator of the Peninsula Streams Society, said the discharge “instantly” killed 318 cutthroat trout and seven coho salmon in a 150-metre section of Reay Creek downstream of the Wesbrook Drive storm sewer outfall.
