guidance from the Ontario Ministry of the Environment and is developed for
activities which are associated with or ancillary to industrial manufacturing
or treatment processes. The ancillary sources addressed in BMP plan are
material storage areas; loading and unloading areas; plant site runoff;
in-plant transfer, process, and material handling areas; and sludge and
hazardous waste disposal areas. In general, the BMP Plan will include
practices used by industry for pollution control from these sources, safety
programs, fire protection, protection against loss of valuable raw materials
or products, etc. The following elements must be included in a BMP Plan:
General
1. Name and location of facility
2. Statement of BMP policy and objectives
3. Review by plant manager
Specific
1. Establishment of BMP Committee
2. Risk Identification and Assessment
3. Reporting of BMP Incidents

industrial sewage containing certain substances in quantities in excess
of the limits set by the By-law but provides that the Municipality may
permit the discharge of industrial waste which would otherwise be prohibited
by the said By-law to an extent fixed by agreement with the Municipality
under such conditions with respect to payment or otherwise as may be necessary
to compensate for any additional costs of treatmentt and
WHEREAS the Company carries on an industrial activity within the
Municipality at premises known as which
activity produces a sewage discharge in which the quantity of one or more
of Suspended Solids, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (hereinafter referred to as
B.O.D.), Phenolic Compounds, Kjeldahl nitrogen, Phosphorus, or solvent
extractable matter of animal and vegetable origin (hereinafter referred to
as Grease), is above the permissible limits set out in the said By-law
which results in materially adding to the cost of treatment at the municipal
sewage works.
NOW THEREFORE THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH that the parties hereto
mutually covenant and agree as follows:-
1. (1) During the currency of this agreement the QUANTITY OF SEWAGE DISCHARGED
by the Company from its premises at
to the sanitary sewer or combined sewer system shall not exceed
cubic metres per day and the RATE OF SUCH DISCHARGE OF SEWAGE
from the said premises shall not exceed cubic metres per hour.
(2) In calculating the quantity of sewage for the purpose of
this agreement, stormwater shall be excluded.
"
.
2.
During the currency of this agreement only, the QUALITY OF THE SEWAGE
discharged by the Company from the said premises to the sanitary sewer
or combined sewer system MAY EXCEED THE LIHITS SET BY THE BY-LAW with
respect to the quantity of Suspended Solids, B.O.D., Phenolic Compounds
Grease, Phosphorus and Kjeldahl Nitrogen provided that they SHALL NOT
EXCEED THE FOLLOWING LIMITS AT ANY TIME.
(a) Suspended Solids milligrams/litre
(b) B.O.D. milligrams/litre
(c) Phenolic Compounds - milligrams/litre
(d) Grease milligrams/litre
(e) Phosphorus milligrams/litre
(f) Kjeldahl Nitrogen milligrams/litre
3. THE DISCHARGE OF SEWAGE BY the Company from the said premises
containing Suspended Solids, B.O.D., Phenolic Compounds, Grease, Phosphorus or
Kjeldahl Nitrogen, IN EXCESS OF THE ABOVE LIMITS shall constitute a contravention
of this agreement and thus a contravention of the By-law.
4. In determining the quality of sewage for the purposes of this
agreement, the volume of any stormwater or any water which is required to
be deducted for the purposes of Section 5(1) of By-law No.
shall be deducted and Standard Methods as defined in the by-law shall be
used.
5.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL REMAIN IN FORCE from

increasing their maintenance costs or causing a dangerous
condition; or
(c) The sewage is causing damage to the sewage treatment process
or causing a dangerous condition in the treatment works; or
(d) The sewage is causing the sludge from the sewage works,
to fail to meet criteria relating to contaminants for
spreading the sludge on agricultural lands under
Ontario's Guidelines for Sewage Sludge Utilization on
Agricultural Lands(as revised January, 1986); or
(e) The sewage is causing the sewage works effluent to
contravene any requirement by or under the Ontario Water
Resources Act or the Environmental Protection Act
(Ontario); or
(f) The sewage is causing a hazard to any person, animal, property,
or vegetation; or
(g) The sewage is contrary to By-law No. in any way other

nitrogen of milligram/litre, an average excess of phosphorus of
milligrams/litre, An estimated annual plant discharge of
cubic meters, and at a treatment cost set by the Municipality on a year to year
basis.
The said fee shall become due and be paid quarter yearly on the
last days of March, June, September and December in each year of any renewal
until terminated as herein provided. The fee payable for the period
