ComplyOnSiteIs Alberta WSTPLQ hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Alberta WSTPLQ is the AER oilfield-waste code for poisonous liquid waste. It fits only waste from the upstream facilities, wells or pipelines on that route. The code alone doesn't make the waste dangerous oilfield waste.
Dangerous oilfield waste stays on the AER route inside Alberta. It needs an Alberta hazardous-waste manifest only if it is exported from Alberta. Record the AER code in the oilfield waste information. A regulated export also needs the federal movement assessment, and a generic industrial category can't replace the AER code.
What does Alberta WSTPLQ cover?
Poisonous liquid requiring special handling. Use this code only when none of the other listed codes applies. The code is tied to upstream oilfield origin. The actual composition and properties still decide whether the waste is dangerous and how to handle it.
When does poisonous liquid waste Alberta WSTPLQ fall under Alberta WSTPLQ?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| WSTPLQ | The waste comes from the AER upstream oilfield route and its material matches this stream. |
Origin matters. Waste from an unrelated industrial activity doesn't become oilfield waste because its material has a similar name.
