Name: BCER Waste Discharge Authorization - Active

Display Field: AUTHORIZATION_TYPE

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPoint

Description: This is a version BC_WASTE_DISCHARGE_AUTH_PT dataset that is filtered down to only show BCER authorizations that are active.This dataset is a GIS layer derived from the downloadable dataset all_ams_authorizations.xlsx, enabling spatial interpretation of authorization locations and characteristics. Authorization information is maintained in the Authorization Management System (AMS), which stores authorization documents, discharge limits, supporting materials, and monitoring requirements. The Waste Discharge Authorizations Datamart aggregates selected fields from AMS for public access and analysis.The Province of British Columbia requires certain industrial, municipal, and commercial activities to obtain a waste discharge authorization before releasing waste into the environment. These requirements are defined under the Environmental Management Act and the Waste Discharge Regulation, which outline what activities and waste types must be authorized, such as air contaminants, industrial effluent, municipal wastewater, garbage, and hazardous waste.The provincial waste discharge authorization program plays a central role in environmental protection by ensuring that discharges are properly regulated, monitored, and reported. It also provides transparency by allowing environmental professionals, local governments, regulators, industry, and the public to find, analyze, and understand authorization information across British Columbia.Additional information related to individual waste discharge authorizations can be found at Waste discharge authorizations - Province of British Columbia.Data PropertiesAttributes / Column NameField AliasData TypeData PrecisionCommentsOBJECTIDOBJECTIDObject IDSHAPESHAPEGeometry (Point)AUTHORIZATION_NUMBERAuthorization NumberLongPermit or Approval numberSTATUSStatusText6Status of authorizationCOMPANYCompanyText92Authorization holderAUTHORIZATION_TYPEAuthorization TypeText50DISCHARGE_TYPEDischarge TypeText8Effluent, air or refuseBCENICBC Industry CodeText135Industry typeEMS_SITE_TYPEEMS Site #, Type and Desc.Text255Discharge site typeCPIXComparative Priority IndexText6WDR_REGWaste Discharge RegulationText10Waste discharge regulation schedule (if applicable)WDR_DESCRegulation DescriptionText103Waste discharge regulation descriptionFACILITY_TYPE_DESCFacility Type/DescriptionText261DISCHARGE_PT_SRCDischarge Point/SourceText247CONTAMINANTDischarge ContaminantText39Contaminant of concernDISCHARGE_MINMinimum DischargeText13Minimum discharge rateDISCHARGE_AVGAverage DischargeText16Average discharge rateDISCHARGE_MAXMaximum DischargeText19Maximum discharge rateDISCHARGE_STARTDischarge Start DateDateDISCHARGE_ENDDischarge End DateDatePROPOSED_TXProposed Treatment and DisposalText255ADMIN_AREAAdministrative AreaText31PROGRAM_AREAProgram AreaText14REGIONAL_DISTRICTRegional DistrictText25NEAREST_MUNICIPALITYNearest MunicipalityText19FACILITY_ADDRESSFacility AddressText150ISSUE_DATEIssue DateDateEXPIRY_DATEExpiry DateDateLONGITUDELongitudeDoubleLATITUDELatitudeDoubleRenewal Triggers and Service Levels Quarterly
