Policy Text:

Where the use of land as an outdoor confinement area or a farm-animal yard (existing and/or future) that is or would be a significant drinking water threat as described in Appendix B is governed by a Prescribed Instrument (Nutrient Management Strategy developed under General Regulation 267/03 of the Nutrient Management Act), this activity shall continue to be managed through these existing requirements. The existing regulatory requirements administered by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the corresponding compliance program enforced by the MOE already manage this activity so that it is not a significant threat to drinking water.
