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.
