Policy Text:

For any new or existing application of agricultural source material to land outside of a WHPA-A, where this activity is, or would be, a significant drinking water threat, it shall be designated for the purpose of Section 58 of the Clean Water Act, 2006 and a Risk Management Plan shall be required to ensure this activity ceases to be or never becomes a significant drinking water threat.

The requirements of the Risk Management Plan will generally be based on the requirements of a Nutrient Management Plan and/or Strategy under the Nutrient Management Act, but may also include any modifications or additional requirements deemed necessary or appropriate by the Risk Management Official. However, nothing in this policy grants the Risk Management Official the authority to specify requirements for a Prescribed Instrument issued under the Nutrient Management Act, or where a person is seeking an exemption from a Risk Management Plan under section 61 of O. Reg 287/07.

Monitoring Text:

OC-CW-1.10: The Risk Management Official shall provide a report to the Source Protection Authority, by February 1st of each year, summarizing the actions taken by the Risk Management Official to implement the Source Protection Plan policies, in
accordance with the Clean Water Act, 2006 and associated regulations.
