Bill 66 should not be approved. Section 39 of the Clean Water Act requires that source water protection plans are followed by new developments to ensure the health and safety of the public. Red tape and duplication does exist, but this regulation is NOT red tape, and it is very misleading to 'market' this Bill as helping to improve government efficiencies, when the true inefficiencies are not being eliminated. Without the enforcement of Section 39 of the Clean Water Act, tragedies such as Walkerton can happen again. Successful economic development can and should be pursued, but ONLY in a RESPONSIBLE manner.
