To reduce the risk to municipal drinking water sources from the handling and storage of dense non-aqueous phase liquids in concentrations typical of household use, where this activity is, or would be, a significant drinking water threat, municipalities, in collaboration with the Conservation Authority, the Ministry of Environment, and/or wherever possible other bodies, shall develop and implement an education and outreach program directed at the owners and/or occupants of such properties.

The program may include, but not necessarily be limited to, the provision of education material and information about the nature of the threat, how DNAPLs can be identified and handled and disposed of in a manner so that the activity would cease to be or never become a significant drinking water threat. This policy shall be initiated within one (1) year of the effective date of the Source Protection Plan.

5.04: Ministry of Environment, and all other implementers, shall establish monitoring programs as per Section 45 of the Clean Water Act. The information collected through these monitoring programs shall be included in a monitoring report that shall be submitted annually to the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority. The information submitted to the Conservation Authority shall be consistent with the guidance developed pursuant to policy 5.02 where that guidance identifies items required to meet provincial reporting requirements of the implementer or SPA. Aspects of the guidance which are beyond that which is necessary to satisfy provincial reporting requirements shall be considered in submitting the monitoring reports. Monitoring reports are to be submitted by February 1 of each year following the first anniversary of the effective date of the Source Protection Plan. Monitoring reports shall include information since the submission of the previous monitoring report to December 31 of the
year previous to the deadline for report submission. For the first report, the information shall include information from the effective date of the Source Protection Plan.
