Is Manitoba EHS51 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule B threshold is met. EHS51 is a Category 3 Provincial Waste Code. It applies when chlordecone reaches the Schedule B total mass-concentration threshold of 100 mg/kg.

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 EHS51 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules still apply.
