Municipal Wastewater Regulation – Technical Information Summary Sheet
This summary sheet is referenced in Section 12 of the Municipal Wastewater Regulation (MWR) - Technical Information. Please submit a separate
summary sheet for each type of discharge being registered.
Note: This sheet is for information only and may not capture all sampling, reporting and notification required for your site. Requirements of the MWR
and any requirement(s) imposed by a Director take precedence over this summary sheet.

2. Description of the wastewater facility
Describe the type of treatment system listing process components including make and model if applicable. See examples below.



Septic tank and disposal field.
Siemens™ OMNIPAC® SBR Field-Erected Package Wastewater Plant.
Secondary treatment system featuring: bar rack, grit chamber, equalization basin, primary settling tank, biological treatment, secondary
settling tank and disinfection.
3. In respect of the discharge from the wastewater facility, a summary of:
a. the maximum daily flow of the discharge
Maximum Daily Flow (m3/d)
b. Effluent quality and sampling requirements
Summarize the maximum discharge limits and collection and reporting information for all discharge parameters, including those identified in the
Environmental Impact Study (EIS) or by any other source (including requirements or substitution imposed by the director). The summary below should
match the parameters identified in the registration form. Add or remove rows as necessary.

c. Receiving environment sampling requirements
Provide a summary of the receiving environment monitoring program. For easy reference, the “Site #” (column 1) should correspond to sites identified
on the plan attached as part of Section 4. The “Site ID” column is optional and the “Depth” column refers to depth below the surface of the water (i.e.
0.0m = surface). Add or remove rows as necessary.

d. Additional notification requirements
If a discharge or monitoring parameter fails to meet the requirements of the MWR, the discharger must notify the director immediately, or as directed
by the MWR.
In addition to the requirement above, provide a summary below of all additional notification required in the event that a discharge or monitoring
parameter is exceeded. Additional requirements are those that are not included in the MWR, but imposed by the director, EIS, or any other applicable
plan or study. Add or remove rows as necessary.

(e.g. Fecal Coliform Organisms exceed 50 MPN at
monitoring Site #1, ID 001)
Notification Timeline
(e.g. notify immediately)
Parties to Notify
(e.g. Ministry of Environment, Capital Regional District,
Public Health Officer, Drinking Water Purveyor)
