Policy Text:

Where a Chloride Issue Contributing Area has been identified, the County of Brant shall
review and, if necessary, revise their Salt Management Plans for the application of salt
on roadways in all Wellhead Protection Areas. The Salt Management Plan shall
include, as a minimum, measures to ensure application rate, timing and location reduce
the potential for salt-related surface water run-off and groundwater infiltration and meet
the objectives of Environment Canada's Code of Practice for Environmental
Management of Road Salts including the salt vulnerable area mapping to include areas
where significant threats can occur.

Monitoring Text:

BC-CW-1.9: The County 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 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.
