Under the Area-Based…

Under the Area-Based Guidance it is possible that permit holders may be required to implement management and monitoring measures. Considering the cost associated with such measures, we have concerns for permit holders that may fall under Area-Based Guidance. Will the MECP be reasonable with the period of implementation for any new permit requirements that are a result of the Area-Based Guidance?

The MECP is proposing to make water taking records and other monitoring data collected under the conditions of a PTTW publicly available. Does this imply that annual submission of all monitoring data may be required by permit holders beyond the current requirements of WTRS? We would like the MECP to clarify the submission requirements and timing.
