Policy Text:
The municipality is strongly encouraged to purchase, install and maintain signs designed by the Ministry of Transportation to identify the locations of Intake Protection Zones. These signs should be placed along recreational waterways where awareness of the Intake Protection Zones should be raised. Source Protection Authorities will collaborate with municipalities, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Parks Canada to determine appropriate sign locations and secure any necessary approvals for the installation. This policy should be initiated within two years of the Source Protection Plan taking effect.
