specified in Appendix  2 of the staff report dated May 25, 2016. (shown below): 
That the Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee direct staff to administer and enforce 
Bylaw 484 according to the following policies: 
1. Where a sewage disposal field or septage pit is awfully non-conforming with respect to 
Bylaw 484, and pursuant to Local Government Act Section 529, the Salt Spring Island 
Local Trust Committee considers that the following actions do not constitute 
maintenance, alteration, or extension, and therefore require a development variance 
permit application to the Salt Spring Island Local Trust Committee: 
a) Removal and replacement of the dispersal system in its entirety. 
2. Where a sewage disposal field or septage pit is lawfully non-conforming with respect 
to Bylaw 484, and where a health hazard exists as defined under the B.C. Public 
Health Act, an Authorized Person may carry out immediate, temporary repairs of the 
system that result in a further contravention to Bylaw 484 than that existing at the time 
the repair or alteration was started to prevent or contain the hazard. Permanent repairs 
or alterations that result in a further contravention of Bylaw 484 than that existing at 
the time the repair or alteration was started, or 1(a) above, should be supervised by a 
Professional and will require a development variance permit application to the Salt 
Spring Island Local Trust Committee following resolution of the emergency. 
3. “Authorized Person” and “Professional” have the same meaning as in the Sewerage 
System Regulation.
