Based on criteria, the prescribed instrument application may be flagged for a more detailed ‘secondary screening’ to determine if the activity associated with the application is a significant drinking water threat. If yes, the appropriate standard operating policy is applied. As legally required, where a source protection policy that relies on a prescribed instrument to prohibit an activity that is a significant drinking water threat, the ministry is conforming to the policy by refusing to issue an instrument for the activity.
Policy Text:
For any new stormwater management facility that would discharge stormwater where this activity would be a significant drinking water threat, except for: a new storm water management facility that discharges storm water located within an ICA, where the drainage area associated with the storm water management facility is less than or equal to 100 hectares, the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks shall prohibit this activity through the Environmental Compliance Approvals process to ensure this activity never becomes a significant drinking water threat.
Monitoring Text:
OC-CW-1.12: Where the Source Protection Plan policies prohibit an activity through the use of a prescribed instrument, the applicable Ministry shall summarize the actions taken the previous year to implement the policies and provide a written report summarizing this information to the Source Protection Authority and the County by February 1st of
each year.
