What you need to know before obtaining this permit

Underground water catchment

The cost of the permit is $110
A $325 compliance bond is also required

Work must begin within six (6) months of issuance of building permit.
If natural environments are present, a professional firm must survey them and identify the delimitation of the natural high-water line on the site. This, in turn, will be surveyed by the land surveyor and recorded on the site plan.

List of documents to be provided

Copy of the site plan drawn to the required scale. The site plan will show:
• Location of the proposed catchment work, the building, septic tank, and tile field;
• Location of septic installations on neighbouring lots;
• Direction of flow of surface water run-off;
• Location of waterways, natural high water mark, flood plains, and wetlands (if applicable)

In the case of a project aimed at replacing an existing catchment work, the applicant can produce their own layout plan by using the site plan for the said property.
In the case of a vacant lot, the septic installation report prepared by a consultant can serve as the layout plan.
Any amendment to the layout plan must be approved by the Municipality BEFORE commencing work.
