Policy Text:

To ensure Existing or Future onsite sewage systems and onsite holding tanks 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 cease to be or never become a significant drinking water threat, where this activity is or would be a significant drinking water threat, the municipality shall implement an on-site sewage system maintenance inspection program. Inspections shall be prioritized based on the proximity to the drinking water supply.

Monitoring Text:

WC-CW-1.9: The municipality shall provide a report to the Source Protection Authority, by February 1st of each year, summarizing the actions taken to implement the Source Protection Plan policies, where specifically required by the policies.

Where the County is required to implement education and outreach programs as the primary means of managing the risk associated with significant drinking water threats, the report must indicate, at minimum, the properties where these programs
were implemented and additional details on how the significant drinking water threat was managed and/or ceased to be significant.
