Policy Text:
To ensure that any replacement or new septic system and/ or holding tank with a
design flow of less than or equal to 10,000 Litres per day and subject to approval
under the Ontario Building Code Act or the Ontario Water Resources Act never
becomes a significant drinking water threat, the County shall amend their Official
Plan and Zoning By-law to direct land uses relying on these activities to a location
on the same property where these activities would not be a significant drinking
water threat, where possible. Further, the County shall assess the option of
identifying preferred systems (e.g. tertiary treatment) for development.
