Streamlining process for water taking - fantastic. Removal of the requirement for a PTTW for construction water taking is great, and the proposed increase in the exemption quantity for PTTWs for Foundation Drainage from 50,000 L/day is excellent!
However, my comment is related to the choice of 379,000 L/day limit for foundation drainage for EASRs. The current "limit" for construction dewatering EASRs and Category 2 PTTWs is 400,000 L/day. Why is the proposed change going to be 100,000 U.S. Gallons/day? Being Canadian, I oppose the conversion of U.S. weights and measures into Canadian regulatory limits. Keep the limit at 400,000 L/day; use 100,000 Imperial gallons/day (455,000 L/day), or if you want to show that the 400,000 L/day "limit" is being reduced, choose an arbitrary limit, such as 350,000 or 375,000 L/day, or perhaps 327,00 L/day [equivalent to 50 Imperial Gallons per minute (IGPM)] or 392,000 L/day (60 IGPM).
Keep the Canadian (Imperial) gallon a gallon!
