MANDATORY SCREENING CRITERIA a) The drinking water quality expected as a result of the Project must meet the applicable Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality or provincial standards, whichever are more stringent;
b) In certain situations, an Applicant may request an exemption from the Aesthetic Objectives of the Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality with the following conditions:
i) The Project would be located in a rural or isolated community;
ii) The Applicant demonstrates, in writing, that the Project would result in water quality that would meet all of the Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality Microbiological, Chemical, Radiological, and, Physical Parameters, except for the Physical Parameters’ Aesthetic Objectives;
iii) The Applicant provides a detailed rationale for seeking an exemption from the Aesthetic Objectives; and
iv) The Applicant obtains the written approval of the Management Committee before the Project is recommended to Ministers.
