Policy Text:
To ensure that the existing and future handling and storage of a dense non-aqueous phase liquid ceases to be and/or never becomes a significant drinking water threat, within a vulnerable area, where this activity would be a significant drinking water threat:
New or expanded handling and storage of specified dense non-aqueous phase liquids is designated for the purpose of Section 57 of the Clean Water Act, 2006 and is therefore prohibited within a Wellhead Protection Area A; and,
New or expanded handling and storage of dense non-aqueous phase liquids outside of the Wellhead Protection Area A and existing handling and storage of dense non-aqueous phase liquids within a vulnerable area, where this activity is a significant drinking water threat, this activity is designated for the purposes of Section 58 of the Clean Water Act, 2006 and a Risk Management Plan is required. A Risk Management Plan for a significant threat that is Technical Standards and Safety Authority regulated shall be scoped to a Contaminant Management Plan and any monitoring, reporting and auditing requirements provided to the Technical Standards and Safety Authority as appropriate to address the significant drinking water threat.
