Policy Text:

All municipalities in the Cataraqui Source Protection Area should evaluate their waste management programs and improve them as necessary in order to reduce the impacts of improper disposal of wastes on sources of drinking water within two years of the Source Protection Plan taking effect.

The waste management programs should:

encourage landowners, tenants, and small business operators to properly dispose of waste products and
ensure that local hazardous waste collection programs are accessible and convenient, and provide information to encourage the use of non-toxic (green) household products.

If the foregoing is undertaken by the municipality, the municipality should provide the Cataraqui Source Protection Authority with a copy of the program evaluation within 60 days of its completion or after its endorsement by Council, if applicable.
