Policy Text:
To ensure any existing and future activity that reduces the recharge of an aquifer ceases to be or never becomes a significant drinking water threat, where the activity is or would be a significant threat within the WHPA-Q2 the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, in consultation with the Townships, is encouraged to undertake an evaluation and analysis to identify research opportunities to develop plans and take appropriate actions to promote recharge on industrial, commercial and institutional lands. This may include seeking partnerships for funding these research activities. If funding becomes available, future developments within the WHPA-Q2 may be subject to the findings of this research and monitored for effectiveness.
