Policy Text:
To achieve the intent of the Clean Water Act, 2006 that drinking water threats identified in the vicinity of a transport pathway are managed to reduce the risk to drinking water sources or do not become a significant threat and that a pathway ceases to endanger the source water of a municipal water supply, the Townships are requested to promote ongoing programs which encourage the decommissioning of abandoned wells as per O. Reg. 903 within all vulnerable areas where there is or would be a significant drinking water threat.
