The
first major task of the Source Protection Committee is
to come up with a work plan that will guide the source
protection planning process for the next five years. The
work plan – called the Terms of Reference, has been
developed with input from municipalities and
stakeholders.
The Terms of Reference outlines who does what, when it will
happen and how much it will cost. It guides the Source
Protection Committee through the completion of the
Assessment Report and the Source Protection Plan.
Public Open Houses on the Terms of Reference were held
in September of 2008 at Ridgetown, St. Marys and
Wyoming. A follow-up Public Meeting was held in London.
In addition, comments were received through the posting
of the Terms of Reference on the website.
The
SPC submitted the proposed Terms of Reference to the
Source Protection Authorities (SPAs) on December 18,
2008. Comments were received by the SPAs and the final
Terms of Reference were approved by the Minister of the
Environment on April 20, 2009.
