Common use of Waste Packing Protocols Clause in Contracts

Waste Packing Protocols. All collection site operators shall: 4.1 Pack waste according to the MECP’s waste classes and PCA Waste Packing Standards as outlined in Appendix A below. 4.2 Ensure that HSP Materials are handled and stored as follows: For Type 1 collection sites: In accordance with the conditions laid out in their respective Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) or Certificate of Compliance, as the case may be, and all applicable laws and regulations. • Have the ability to receive waste paint from the public in a controlled manner (direct supervision or monitored) in a customer drop-off area; • Have reasonable infrastructure to shelter material from inclement weather in a consolidation storage area; • Have sufficient space to receive, sort, store and prepare transportation containers for shipment: − Paints and coatings: minimum of one 205 L drum or one PCA tubskid, one standard UN xxxxxxx boxes or one metal paint collection bin at each collection site; • As applicable, have material-handling equipment with the ability to move containers onto transport vehicles; • Be accessible to transport vehicles for pick- up of HSP Materials ; and • Have reasonable security measures in place to prevent HSP Materials from being tampered with by anyone at the site or using the collection facility at unauthorized times. 4.3 All waste must be packed in an approved UN container1 , a Transport Canada Equivalency Certificate or PCA approved containers and all materials transported must be contained in accordance with Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act (TDGA) requirements. 4.4 Transportation containers must be filled to capacity, except if this practice contravenes either a ministry order or the Collection Site Operator’s Environmental Compliance Approval or Certificate of Compliance Storage Requirements. Transportation containers used at event days should be filled to capacity and it is understood the last container filled of the day may not be filled to capacity and it may be partially filled. 4.5 If applicable, make use of vermiculite in sufficient quantity to cover and protect the waste material from breakage when there is a potential for spillage or breakage of containers in a lab pack during transport. 4.6 Place large pails (18 to 30 litres) on skids and shrink wrap to prevent shifting of waste during transport. Alternatively, xxxxxxx boxes may be used placing large pails on the bottom layer. 4.7 Contamination allowances • The maximum contamination allowance is 5%. This is a weight-based allowance assessed on individual drums for a given waste class. • Contamination levels in transport containers (mis-packed HSP Materials, non-program wastes as identified in Appendix A below) will be monitored by PCA or by its authorized agent through random sampling. HSP Materials collection site operators will be required to take corrective action if contamination allowances are exceeded. PCA reserves the right to apply a financial penalty to collection site operators who exceed the contamination allowance or revoke the collection site’s approval status if corrective action is not taken as reasonably requested by PCA. 1 Refers to containers that meet the requirements established by the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transportation of Dangerous Goods; these requirements provide a uniform international system for identifying and packaging Class 3, 4, 5, 6.1, 8 and 9 dangerous goods for transport.
