Policy Text:

Where an ECA is not required, the Storage of Snow may only occur in accordance with an approved Risk Management Plan and is therefore designated for the purposes of s.58 of the Clean Water Act, where the following applies:
a) Where the activity is or would be a significant drinking water threat;
b) Snow is stored on the property;
c) The snow collection area* – parking and driveway - is equal to or greater than 1,000 square metres 
The Risk Management Official shall establish a Risk Management Plan within five years of the Plan amendment coming into effect.
Note: this policy applies in wellhead protection areas with vulnerability score of 10, and excludes residential land use. 
* For clarity: ‘snow collection area’ refers to plowed area that contributes to the snow storage, and is not limited to the wellhead protection area
