The program shall be made available and updated as necessary on an ongoing basis as is deemed appropriate by the Municipality. Further, the program may be delivered more broadly at the discretion of a municipal council. The policy shall apply in the following vulnerable areas:

Callander IPZ-1 and 2;

Mattawa WHPA-A and B;

Powassan WHPA-A and B1; and

South River IPZ-1 with the exception of lands in Laurier Township (which are subject to LAU1).
