Description

Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a fatal, transmissible, and progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting domestic cervids such as elk and deer. Recognising the seriousness of this reportable disease in the animal population, the federal government developed the CWD Herd Certification Program (HCP) in order to create clear and consistent national standards to support the domestic cervid industry through integrating good animal husbandry with sound biosecurity practices designed to avoid or minimise the spread of CWD. Provinces are empowereed to administer their own programs in an effort to tailor the Program to address specific regional needs while also maintaining conformity with national standards. This comprehensive manual provides clear and accurate advice to Alberta owners and cervid farm operators contemplating enrolment and those who are currently enrolled in the Program.

Description

Under the Alberta Tier 1 Soil and Groundwater Remediation Guidelines, the protection of the Domestic Use Aquifer Pathway must be included for all assessments. Under the Alberta Tier 2 Soil and Groundwater Remediation Guidelines, the applicant is able to reassess the Domestic User Aquifer Pathway and remove this pathway if there is not a risk to human health or the environment at the location in question. One option to remove this pathway from the assessment of risk is based on the lack of access to the groundwater resource within the Munipal Boundaries provided the applicant can demonstrate that there is a municipal bylaw in place that prevents access to groundwater to install drinking water wells. This bylaw is deemed an administrative control that protects human health. This Guide outlines the conditions that need to be met for exclusion based on municipal bylaw. It is intended to help parties ensure they are submitting sufficient information for the regulator to review and...
