Policy Text:
Where the application of road salt to roads and parking lots would be a significant drinking water threat, the planning approval authority shall:
1) Prohibit the establishment of new parking lots with greater than 2000 square metres in:
WHPA-A not in an Issue Contributing Area for Sodium or Chloride (future);
2) Prohibit the establishment of new parking lots with greater than 200 square metres in:
WHPA-A in an Issue Contributing Area for Sodium or Chloride (future); and
3) Require a salt management plan, which includes a reduction in the future use of salt, as part of a complete application for development which includes new roads and parking lots where the application of road salt is significant in any of the following areas:
WHPA-B (VS = 10) (future); or
WHPA-E (VS ≥ 9) (future); or
the remainder of an Issue Contributing Area for Sodium or Chloride (future).
Such plans should include but not be limited to mitigation measures regarding design of parking lots, roadways and sidewalks to minimize the need for repeat application of road salt such as reducing ponding in parking areas; and directing stormwater discharge outside of vulnerable areas where possible.
Monitoring Text:
MON-1: The municipality or planning approval authority shall, by February 1 of each year, prepare and submit a report equivalent to s. 65 of O. Reg. 287/07 under the Clean Water Act, 2006 to the Source Protection Authority on the actions taken in the previous calendar year to achieve the outcomes of the source protection policy. Where applicable, municipal planning authorities shall provide a copy of the notice of adoption of amendments to official plans and/or zoning by laws. Reporting shall include information related to the effectiveness of the policies in ensuring a threat ceases to be, or does not become significant, and any actions required to respond to a drinking water threat during the reporting period.
