    Paraformaldehyde

Manitoba total-mass limit: 100 mg/kg for Paraformaldehyde.

Paraformaldehyde waste has a Manitoba total-mass limit of 100 mg/kg. The limit is set per kilogram of waste.

Is Manitoba EHS126 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule B threshold is met. EHS126 is a Category 3 Provincial Waste Code. It applies when paraformaldehyde reaches the Schedule B limit of 100 mg/kg total concentration by mass.

The 3-digit provincial waste class goes in a separate field. It doesn't replace the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code.

For regulated hazardous waste, enter EHS126 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply.

What does Manitoba EHS126 cover?

This entry tests waste for paraformaldehyde. Find the total concentration by mass and compare it with 100 mg/kg. At or above that Schedule B figure, the waste is Category 3 and takes EHS126.
