IDENTIFYING THE LABORATORY THAT WILL
CARRY OUT LABORATORY TESTING
As specified in Ontario’s Drinking-water
Systems Regulation O. Reg. 170/03, this form must be completed and delivered to
the
Ministry of the Environment prior to the
laboratory analyzing your water samples for required parameters for the first
time. Once you
have completed this form, you do not
need to re-submit it unless there are any changes in a laboratory being
contracted to analyze any
required parameter (i.e. Section 2 of
this form). Please note that this form is to be used for the identification of
Regulation testing and
not for the purpose of the Engineer’s
Report testing. Failure to notify the parties in accordance with the Regulation
and/or
submission of false information
constitutes an offence. All testing for Ontario Drinking-Water Quality
Standards and health-
related parameters required in a MOE
Certificate of Approval, Order or Direction must be performed by a licensed
laboratory.

Describe your Drinking-Water System
Markham distribution system is an
extension of Toronto and York Region distribution
systems. Raw surface water from Lake
Ontario is disinfected, treated and tested by
Toronto system for microbiological,
organic and inorganic parameters prior to
reaching York Region distribution
system. York Region distribution system acts as a
wholesale distribution system to
Markham, and provides standard distribution testing
in their south distribution system only
(refer to York Region Annual Report for
details). York Region distribution
system also provides storage and pressure boosting
for Markham system.
Markham is a distribution system only
without pumping and storage facilities.
Markham’s drinking water within the
distribution system is tested for standard
parameters.
