For the existing or future application of commercial fertilizer to land, on properties zoned exclusively for residential purposes in the Area Municipal Zoning By-laws, where this activity is, or would be, a significant drinking water threat, the County, in collaboration with the Source Protection Authority, Area Municipalities, the Ministry of the Environment, and/or other bodies wherever possible, shall develop and implement an education and outreach program directed at the owners and/or occupants of such properties and local lawn care companies. The program may include, but not necessarily be limited to, the provision of education material and information about the nature of the threat and how commercial fertilizer can be handled and applied in a manner that would manage the activity so that it ceases to be, or never becomes, a significant drinking water threat.

OC-5.01: The County shall provide a report to the Source Protection Authority, by February 1st of each year, summarizing the actions taken by the County to implement the Source Protection Plan Policies, where required by the policies and not forming part of the report from the Risk Management Official required under OC-5.03.
