Length of storage
 85. (1) Subject to subsection (2), no person shall store prescribed materials in a temporary field nutrient storage site for longer than, (a) a maximum of 10 days, in the case of de-watered municipal sewage biosolids; (b) the time period determined in accordance with subsection (2), in the case of prescribed materials other than de-watered municipal sewage biosolids. (c), (d)  Revoked:  O. Reg. 447/03, s. 38 (1). O. Reg. 267/03, s. 85 (1); O. Reg. 447/03, s. 38 (1); O. Reg. 338/09, s. 65 (1, 2). (2) The maximum number of days for which prescribed materials, other than de-watered municipal sewage biosolids, may be stored in a temporary field nutrient storage site shall be determined in accordance with the following rules: 1. Determine which nutrient characteristics, management techniques or field conditions set out in Column 1 of the Table to this subsection apply to the site and follow paragraphs 2 and 3 for each one that is applicable. 2. If the number of days in Column 2 of the Table opposite the applicable nutrient characteristic, management technique or field condition set out in Column 1 is positive, add the number to the total number of days for which the site is available for storage. 3. If the number of days in Column 2 of the Table opposite the applicable nutrient characteristic, management technique or field condition set out in Column 1 is negative, subtract the number from the total number of days for which the site is available for storage. 4. The number that results from applying the rules set out in paragraphs 1 to 3 for each nutrient characteristic, management technique or field condition set out in the Table that is applicable to the site is the maximum number of days for which prescribed materials, other than de-watered municipal sewage biosolids, may be stored in the site but that number cannot exceed 300 days.

  1.   Nutrients stored in the site have a dry matter content of 50 per cent or more.   +60 

  2.   Nutrients stored in the site have a dry matter content of 30 per cent or more, but less than 50 per cent.   +30 

  3.   The percentage of total nitrogen combined with the percentage of total phosphorus in the materials stored in the site, both on a wet basis, is less than 0.8 per cent.   +60 

  4.   The percentage of total nitrogen combined with the percentage of total phosphorus in the materials stored in the site, both on a wet basis, is at least 0.8 per cent, but less than 1.6 per cent.   +30 

  5.   There are field drainage tiles at any depth of the soil surface or bedrock within 0.9 metres of the soil surface, and the tiles or bedrock, as the case may be, are located, (a) under the site; (b) within three metres of the perimeter of the site; or (c) within the first 50 metres of the flow path to surface water.   -60 

  6.   The site is situated on soil included in hydrologic soil group B, C or D.   +30 

  7.   The outer edge of the site, at the ground surface, has a perimeter of less than 100 metres.   +30 

  8.   The site is covered with a rain-shedding tarp that, (a) has been anchored against wind removal; (b) has been placed on the site on the same day on which the first materials were placed on the site; and (c) remains in place for the entire storage period.   +120 

  9.   The site has a flow path to the nearest surface water or water inlet for field tile drainage of 150 metres or more.   +30 

  10.   The site is situated on the same location, or within 125 metres of the same location, not more than once every three years.   +60 

  11.   The site is not situated on the same location, or within 125 metres of the same location, more often than once every three years and the materials stored on the site are removed from the site and applied to land during the period between August 15 and October 15 in any one year.   +60 

  12.   The pile of materials stored on the site, (a) has a dry matter content of between 25 and 60 per cent; (b) has a ratio of carbon to nitrogen of between 20:1 and 40:1; and (c) is turned so that every piece of material in the pile is displaced from its former position and mixed or inverted once weekly for the first three weeks, and once monthly after that.   +120 O.
