Policy Text:
Within a wellhead protection area where the vulnerability score is 10, any existing storage of snow where it is a significant threat is designated for the purpose of Section 58 of the Clean Water Act, and requires a Risk Management Plan. This includes, for example, but is not limited to the following (for full circumstance details refer to the MOE Tables of Circumstances):
a) the storage of snow in areas where the snow is stored either below grade and the area upon which it is stored is at least 0.01 hectares, or
b)storage is above grade and the area upon which it is stored is more than 1 hectare
The Risk Management Official shall negotiate or establish a Risk Management Plan with the person engaged in the designated threat activity within three years of the Plan coming into effect. The RMP is to contain, at a minimum, structural or management alterations (if any) which when implemented will ensure that existing operations continue to function in a manner which minimizes the risk to sources of municipal drinking water.
