Notes to Schedule 3:

1. The Hazardous Waste Numbers are consistent with United States Environmental Protection Agency Hazardous Waste Numbers.  If there is no United States Environmental Protection Agency Hazardous Waste Number for a waste, the Hazardous Waste Number is assigned to the waste by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment.

2. CAS Number means the Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number.  When the waste or a regulated constituent is described as a combination of a chemical with its salts or esters, the CAS number is given for the parent compound only.

3. Concentration requirements for aqueous wastes are based on analysis of composite samples.

4. Concentration requirements for non-aqueous wastes are based on analysis of grab samples.

7. Schedule 4 to the Regulation is revoked and the following substituted:

2. “Clean debris surface” means that the surface, when viewed without magnification, must be free of all visible contaminated soil and hazardous waste, except that residual staining from soil and waste that consists of light shadows, slight streaks or minor discolorations may be present, and soil and waste in cracks, crevices or pits may be present, if the residual staining or the waste and soil in cracks, crevices or pits is limited to not more than 5% of each square inch of surface area.

Alternative thickness limits may be used by obtaining an environmental compliance approval.

Immobilization Technologies

 

Treatment Method

Standard

Restriction

Macroencapsulation:

Application of surface coating materials such as polymeric organics (e.g., resins and plastics) or use of a jacket of inert inorganic materials to substantially reduce surface exposure to potential leaching media.

Encapsulating material must completely encapsulate debris and be resistant to degradation by the debris and its contaminants and materials into which it may come into contact after placement (leachate, other waste, microbes), and substantially reduce surface exposure to potential leaching media.

No Restrictions

Microencapsulation:

Stabilization of the debris with the following reagents (or waste reagents) such that the leachability of the contaminants is reduced:
- Portland cement;
- lime/pozzolans (e.g., fly ash and cement kiln dust).
Reagents (e.g., iron salts, silicates, and clays) may be added to enhance the set/cure time or compressive strength, or to reduce the leachability of the contaminants.

Leachability of the contaminants must be reduced.

No Restrictions

Sealing:

Application of an appropriate material which adheres tightly to the debris surface to avoid exposure of the surface to potential leaching media.  When necessary to effectively seal the surface, sealing entails pretreatment of the debris surface to remove foreign matter and to clean and roughen the surface.  Sealing materials include epoxy, silicone, and urethane compounds, but paint may not be used as a sealant.

Sealing must avoid exposure of the debris surface to potential leaching media and sealant must be resistent to degradation by the debris and its contaminants and materials into which it may come into contact after placement (leachate, other waste, microbes).

No Restrictions

Note to Table 3:

1. Note re: microencapsulation: If reducing the particle size of debris to meet the treatment standards results in material that no longer meets the 60 mm minimum particle size limit for debris, the material is subject to the waste-specific treatment standards for the waste contaminating the material, unless the debris has been cleaned and separated from contaminated soil and waste prior to size reduction. Alternative thickness limits may be used by obtaining an environmental compliance approval.
