Public comments invited on updates to the Drinking Water Source Protection Plan for the Long Point Region watershed

Members of the public are invited to read and comment on the Draft Updated Drinking Water Source Protection Plan for the Long Point Region watershed. The plan has been prepared under the Clean Water Act, 2006, to protect municipal sources of drinking water and ensure their sustainable use into the future.

An update of the Long Point Region Source Protection Plan came into effect March 25, 2019. Since then, further updates have been proposed that affect Oxford County (village of Otterville).
