Abstract Abstract. The paper is composed of two parts. The first part reviews the problem of infiltration of extraneous water in the sanitary sewer systems - its sources, causes and effects are discussed in detail. A systematic approach to the investigation of the problem to pinpoint the sources in an existing system is suggested and outlined. Alternative methods of flow measurements including some recently developed techniques, corrections and remedies of the problem are presented and discussed in detail. The second part deals with the problem in Halifax-Dartmouth area. Results of a number of infiltration studies in this area (some of them were carried out under author's direction) are presented and conclusions drawn.
