Policy Text:
To ensure that the operation and establishment of a liquid hydrocarbon pipeline within the meaning of Ontario Regulation 210/01 under the Technical Safety and Standards Act or is subject to the National Energy Board Act, never becomes a significant drinking water threat, where this activity would be a significant drinking water threat, the pipeline proponent, the National Energy Board and the Ontario Energy Board are encouraged to provide the Source Protection Authority and the Municipality the location of any new proposed pipeline within the Municipality and/or Source Protection Area.
The Source Protection Authority should document in the annual report the number of new pipelines proposed within vulnerable areas if a pipeline has been proposed and/or application has been received.
