In progress/some progress made

TSSA continues to administer O. Reg. 217/01 in accordance with its regulatory mandate with respect to bulk plant, cardlock/keylock and retail outlets. This includes periodic inspections, design reviews and variances where applicable, which are posted on the Environmental Registry for stakeholder review and input.

Policy Text:

Where the handling and storage of fuel at an existing bulk plant, cardlock/keylock or retail outlet including a marina (licensed facilities) as defined in Section 1 of Ontario Regulation 217/01 is a significant drinking water threat as described in Appendix B, this activity shall continue to be managed through existing regulatory requirements. The existing requirements under Ontario Regulation 217/01 and the Liquid Fuels Handling Code administered by the TSSA already manage this activity so that it is not a significant threat to drinking water.
