TSSA received a request for inspection reports on Private Fuel Outlets from South Georgian Bay – Lake Simcoe Source Protection Region. TSSA noted that the Technical Standards and Safety Act and associated regulations do not require the registration of private fuel outlets, nor do they require that any documentation on these facilities be submitted to or reviewed or approved by TSSA. TSSA provided the requested information but noted that since TSSA has limited information on these facilities, any information provided may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out-of-date. NOTE: This policy is included for mainly reference purposes. MPBSDP and/or TSSA may be engaged by the named implementing body in the implementation of this threat policy. The associated monitoring policies request another public body (i.e., Source Protection Authority) to report back. In cases where another public body is made responsible for reporting back on actions taken, both MPBSDP and TSSA should expect to be contacted by the responsible reporting body to provide information about any actions taken to assist with the implementation of the policy.

Policy Text:

The local Source Protection Authority shall request from the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) inspection reports on Private Fuel Outlets in areas where the handling and storage of fuel is a significant drinking water threat. To aid in the implementation of Part IV policies, the TSSA will provide this information to the Source Protection Authority for distribution to Risk Management Officials. The local source protection authority will report back to TSSA any data about leaks and other concerns observed, as they relate to TSSA's mandate to enforce Ore 213/217 (as amended).

Monitoring Text:

MON-5: The local source protection authority shall include in the annual report, documentation on the risk reduction efforts they administered throughout the year.
