Benzoic acid
Manitoba total-mass limit: 100 mg/kg for Benzoic acid.
Is Manitoba EHS40 hazardous waste?
Yes, when the Schedule B threshold is met. EHS40 is a Category 3 Provincial Waste Code. It applies when benzoic acid reaches the Schedule B total mass-concentration threshold of 100 mg/kg.
The 3-digit provincial waste class goes in a separate field. It describes the waste stream and doesn't replace the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code.
For regulated hazardous waste, enter EHS40 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply.
What does Manitoba EHS40 cover?
This code tests waste for benzoic acid. Measure 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 EHS40.
