3.44 Source Water Protection Overlay Zone
Source water protection planning is the first line of defense in a multi-barrier approach that
seeks to prevent the contamination or overuse of surface water and groundwater sources of
municipal drinking water. This is achieved by evaluating threats to municipal drinking water
sources and establishing policies and regulations to prevent, manage, or eliminate threats.
The Township of Selwyn is located within the Trent Coalition Source Protection Region and
is subject to the policies of the Trent Source Protection Plan.
The purpose of the Source Water Protection Overlay Zone is to prevent the inadvertent
approval of Planning Act Applications and/or the issuance of building permits that may result
in the establishment of uses that are significant drinking water threats.
Development applications (i.e. Planning Act applications, building permit applications) for
development within the Source Water Protection Overlay Zone shall be accompanied by a
Notice under Section 59(2) of the Clean Water Act, 2006, as amended.
Existing land uses and/or an expansion of existing land uses which pose a significant
drinking water threat activity should be managed pursuant to the Trent Source Protection
Plan. Persons undertaking those land use activities that are, or may be, significant drinking
water threats may be required to develop Risk Management Plan(s).
