This includes, for example, but is not limited to the following (for full circumstance details refer to the MOE Tables of Circumstances):
* a below grade or partially below grade sewage treatment tank or sewage holding tank that is part of a wastewater collection facility or wastewater treatment facility which is designed to discharge treated sanitary sewage at an average daily rate of more than 50,000 cubic metres and where a spill may result in the release of a vinyl chloride or a DNAPL that could degrade to a vinyl chloride.
