Description

This document outlines policies and procedures followed by Alberta Environment and Protected Areas in dealing with some situations related to regulated drinking water and wastewater systems that are not covered by the regulations. The information is used by EPA staff when assessing applications related to EPEA approvals or authorizations of municipal drinking water and wastewater systems. This includes procedures for protecting water bodies, calculating effluent limit for discharge too water bodies and land, considering alternative treatment technology and for options for improving quality of stormwater. The manual has been revised to stream processes for considering new technology and to remove outdated material on the protocol for responding to failed bacterial tests in drinking water systems.
