To reduce the risk to municipal drinking water sources from the land application of untreated septage in vulnerable areas where such activity is or would be a significant drinking water threat, the Province (Ministry of Environment) should consider source protection information as a criterion when setting inspection targets and priorities.

(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.
