For development of proposed lots or for any future development of properties with septic systems and/or septic system holding tanks that could be a significant drinking water threat, the responsible planning authority shall:

If relevant, require a lot grading plan to be prepared and submitted:

Ensure that the review process for future development and/or lot creation (especially lots less than 1 hectare) considers the protection of municipal source water (e.g. the lot size for any proposed development that would include a small on-site sewage system shall be based on the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change's Guidelines for Individual On-site Sewage Systems). The hydro-geological assessment to determine appropriate development density shall be conducted by a professional licensed to carry out that work (P.Geo. or P.Eng. with training in hydrogeology).

This policy takes effect when the Source Protection Plan takes effect.
Note: Additional policies apply. See: MONITORING-2.
