ComplyOnSiteIs Alberta 113 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Alberta 113 is an industrial category for other metal/non-metal acid waste. A waste is hazardous only when it has a Schedule 1 property or listing and no Schedule 2 exclusion applies. The code number proves neither. Alberta treats a waste as corrosive when its pH is below 2.0 or above 12.5. A pH of exactly 2.0 or 12.5 doesn’t meet that test.
For regulated hazardous waste sent for disposal, the consignor enters the waste details on the Alberta hazardous waste manifest. Alberta’s exclusions and shipment rules apply as well.
What does Alberta 113 cover?
Acidic residues holding other metals or non-metals. The category is the material or process part of the Uniform Waste Code. Transport identification, transport class and the management operation are separate parts. The industrial identification guide describes the category, and the Waste Control Regulation decides hazardous status and exclusions.
