What is a Liquid Waste Management Plan?
A liquid waste management plan is a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects of liquid waste and a plan for its management. Undertaken by regional districts and municipalities, LWMPs are developed through a public consultation process and, once approved, provide local government more direct responsibility for discharges within their community. LWMPs can be used to integrate solutions to various potential sources of pollution, including sewage discharges, stormwater runoff, on-site sewage problems, agricultural runoff, sewage from boats and other non-point sources of pollution.
