Nutrient
Management Strategy Reviewer's Checklist
We are updating this page to reflect current regulations.
Information on this page about regulations under the Nutrient Management
Act, 2002 and the Environmental Protection Act is out of
date. On September 18, 2009 new regulations affecting those applying non-agricultural
source materials on agricultural lands were filed. Please visit www.ontario.ca/nasm-omafra
for more information.
The information contained in this document is derived from the Nutrient
Management Act, 2002 and O. Reg 267/03 as amended. Every effort has been
made to make it as accurate as possible, but it is not authoritative.
Please refer to www.e-laws.gov.on.ca
or the official volumes printed by Publications Ontario for the authoritative
text of the act.
Nutrient Management Strategy Reviewer's Checklist
This checklist is a tool used by Nutrient Management Specialist and Engineers
to review Nutrient Management Strategy applications using the NMAN software
or the Nutrient Management Strategy Application form. This checklist is
an aid for reviewers and should not be used as reference for the components
required within a Nutrient Management Strategy. Applicants are responsible
for ensuring that all aspects of the Nutrient Management Act, 2002 are
met for regulated farms. Metric units of measurement are used in this
checklist followed, where applicable, by imperial conversions in parentheses.
In many cases, these conversions have been rounded up to the next full
unit. In all cases, the NM Act, Regulation, and Protocols take precedence
over this document. We reserve the right to update or amend this document.
