ComplyOnSiteIs Alberta 146 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Alberta 146 is an industrial category for other inorganic sludge and solids. 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.
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 146 cover?
The remaining listed sludges, slurries and solids of inorganic composition. 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.
