Policy Text:

To address known Condition Sites that are significant drinking water threats resulting from past activities, the Regional Municipality of Waterloo and Area Municipalities shall require, as a component of a complete application under the Planning Act, the completion of an environmental screening process using a contaminated sites protocol. The contaminated sites protocol will outline the criteria when a Record of Site Condition (RSC) or other conditions will be required as part of the Planning Act application and shall be consistent with the Region of Waterloo contaminated sites protocol. The contaminated sites protocol will decrease the opportunity for contamination to leave the site and remove the property from the list of significant conditions over time.
