Policy Text:

The storage of hazardous waste at disposal sites in James W King IPZ-1, where they are significant drinking water threats, are designated for the purpose of section 58 of the Clean Water Act. Therefore a risk management plan is required for these activities where they relate to existing or future uses.

The risk management plan should consider, at a minimum, the suitability of the storage container(s), the repair and/or replacement of defective or unsuitable storage equipment, staff training and collection of waste materials by a licensed and qualified hazardous waste collector, as per Ministry of the Environment guidelines.

The risk management plan shall be established within two years of the Source Protection Plan taking effect.
