Policy Text:
The Cataraqui Source Protection Authority in cooperation with local stakeholder groups should consider establishing a local incentive program, within two years of the Source Protection Plan taking effect, that would include funding to off-set the cost of the following activities in the highly vulnerable aquifers and significant groundwater recharge areas, and in the wellhead protection areas where there are moderate or low drinking water threats:
Making improvements to liquid fuel storage tanks
Replacements and repairs suggested as a result of the on-site sewage system maintenance inspection or other priorities as defined by the implementation bodies
Properly decommissioning (e.g., plugging) unused wells and upgrading wells to resolve sub-standard construction.
