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

Total ammonia is limited to 100 mg/kg by total mass. Pungent gas used in fertilizer & cleaners.

Is Manitoba EHS16 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule B threshold is met. EHS16 is a Category 3 Provincial Waste Code. Waste reaches it when ammonia makes up 100 mg/kg or more of the total 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 EHS16 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply.

What does Manitoba EHS16 cover?

Test the waste for ammonia. Work out the total concentration by mass and compare it with 100 mg/kg. At or above that Schedule B figure, the waste is hazardous-waste Category 3 and takes code EHS16.
