ComplyOnSiteIs Alberta 153 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Alberta 153 is an industrial category for mercury and sodium fluorescent lamps. Waste is hazardous only when it has a Schedule 1 property or listing and no Schedule 2 exclusion applies. The category number settles 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 still apply.
What does Alberta 153 cover?
Mercury and sodium fluorescent lamps. The category gives 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.
