Implemented

The ministry continues to identify and review existing Environmental Compliance Approvals as a result of source protection plan amendments on an annual basis. For those existing instruments that are screened by the Ministry and subject to existing threat prescribed instrument policies, the existing instruments will be reviewed to determine if the Standard Operating Policy can be applied or if amendments are needed to protect municipal drinking water sources.

Policy Text:

For any existing stormwater management facility that discharges stormwater, where this activity is a significant drinking water threat, the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks shall review and, if necessary, amend Environmental Compliance Approvals to incorporate terms and conditions that, when implemented, will ensure this activity ceases to be a significant drinking water threat.

Monitoring Text:

(OC-CW-1.11): Where the Source Protection Plan policies may result in amendments to a prescribed instrument or the issuance of a new prescribed instrument, the
applicable Ministry shall summarize the actions taken the previous year to implement the policies and provide a written report summarizing this information to
the Source Protection Authority and the County by February 1st of each year.
