Policy Text:
Where the Environmental Protection Act, 1990 (as amended) does not require an approval, the future establishment, operation or maintenance of a waste disposal site is designated for the purpose of Section 57 of the Clean Water Act, 2006 (prohibition) where it would be a significant drinking water threat. This includes, but is not limited to, PCB waste storage.
This policy does not apply to waste that is registered with the MOECC waste generation reporting system, or waste that is approved to be transported off-site using the MOECC manifest process or waste that is subject to Director's Instructions.
This prohibition takes effect when the Source Protection Plan takes effect.
Note: Additional policies apply. See: MONITORING-1 and GENERAL-6.
