Policy Text:

To ensure that the future application, handling and storage of road salt never becomes a
significant drinking water threat, where such activities would be significant drinking water
threats, Haldimand County shall amend its winter maintenance and salt management
plans to identify the Intake Protection Zone areas associated with municipal drinking
water systems, include source water protection policies and enhance best management
practices in these areas.

Haldimand County shall amend its winter maintenance and salt management plans in
accordance with this policy within five (5) years of the Source Protection Plan approval.

Monitoring Text:

HC-CW-1.4: The County of Haldimand 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 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
County shall provide a report to the Source Protection Authority. This report must indicate,
at a 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.
